2 SCREENS - AutoCad to open on left screen

[Wheelie22]

Using AcadE2022 but tested it on 2024 to.

I don't know what is changed but Acad use to open on the screen where I closed it, that was on my left screen.

But now it shows the Startup window on the left (where I closed it) and opens the window on the right screen.
Is there a setting for this ?

FYI

Always use at least 2 screens for AutoCad, but 3 is even better.

Acad / Mail / PDF....

That's a system setting for most of us, not AutoCAD

By chance, is the monitor that you don't want also the WindowsOS default #1 monitor?

get a new system? Add or remove a monitor? You mention 2 and 3 but its not quite clear if there was a change.

More thing to try

FYI if you want StartupWindow  to change to another monitor do the following

Sorry, 1 screen for Acad, 1 for a PDF and another to play a game, I mean look at a mail. 😋

I was at work Monday and even changed the 2 screens HDMI connector on the PC, but that did not change it.

But now working at home (VPN) and now it remembers ? Even AcadE 2024 does it right, on the right screen (in this case the left screen).
