I am not finding a solution to this so not sure if it is possible? I basically have dual monitors. I want to be able to have internet explorer loaded in the left monitor. I want to be able to right click a link and select open in new window. From there I want the new window to open in my right side monitor. Right now if I close a window in the right side monitor holding shift down it will re-open there. But, if I move the IE window back to the left monitor and try to re-open another window in a new window it resorts back to opening it in the left hand monitor window instead of the right hand like I want it to open. Hope this made sense? LOL

What OS are you using? What are you using for multiple monitor support, software from video card maker, built in support of your OS. Some 3rd party tool like http://www.realtimesoft.com/ultramon/

The above link has lots of different features where you can setup which monitor new windows open in, etc. etc.

There are multiple 3rd party tools for working with multiple monitors -- the ultramon is just one I know off the top of my head since I use to use it.

So your multiple monitor support is just OS standard built in, or some software you installed from you video card maker?

I just reinstalled the ultramon on my XP box here at work.. Got tied up with "work" ;) so couldn't test your scenario.. But real quick it allows for buttons that real easy move windows between monitors on the title bars of the windows. So you click and bam its on the other window, etc. etc. This is the feature I most used, and now that I have it installed will start using again ;)

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By Legend20 · Posted

      You are clueless. The updates are done in the background so the next time you open Edge the updates are applied automatically. There is no need to close all your tabs. Just keep browsing like you normally do. Clearly you don't use Edge and are just one of those haters that complain for the sake of complaining.

      Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.

      Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
