Defaulting applications to a monitor

[TheRealDeal]

Is it possible to default where an application displays? I have a user that has computer with a built-in video, and an additional video w 2 video ports. Ultimately, 3 video ports available. The applications will randomly open to monitors other than the Primary. We can display the screen ID and they all appear correct. It's just the darn apps.

Hello,

By default Windows should remember where the application was closed at the last time and want to open in that same location.

In the case of laptops and multiple monitors this can be a little tricky because things will start opening on the extra monitor(s) even if it disconnected from them. Which means you will not be able to see your applications.

However, if the system is not behaving correctly you can get third party software that helps you manage the multiple monitors a bit better. Programs like Ultramon (
