It's getting extremely frustrating to have to flip my primary monitor, reset my computer, etc.  These bugs started a few months ago for me and it appears there are several other users with this issue.  For some reason, Fusion 360 will only start on one of my rarely used screens.  And even then, it will crash/stop responding about 70% of the time.  I have to click it a few times so it will crash, then restart it.  Most of the time that doesn't work.  So I found other users with the same issue having to make that monitor the primary monitor.  It screws up my workflow, all my settings, etc.  This really needs to get fixed, it's extremely disrupting.

I am having the exact same problem. I use three monitors. fusion 360 will start and run fine as long as the monitor it is opening on is designated the primary monitor. If I ever move things around and the (usualy) primary monitors is used by a diferent computer, and fusion opens on my (usualy) secondary monitor everything is fine ONLY if the (usualy) secondary monitor is designated as 'primary' by windows 10 display settings. The real problem happens if i then try to use my (usualy) primary monitor with my working computer again. Even if i make the change after closing Fusion 360 and then open 360 again. What hapens is Fusion 360 wants to open on the secondary monitor and it imediatly crashes. I cant even pull it over to the primary monitor. It only opens on the primary monitor after a full computer restart. Fusion 360 just refused to run on a non-primary monitor. It will run on any of my monitors so long as they are the primary monitor.

 should respond and mention my crashing problem was due to an Asus audio driver, which has been remedied, but the secondary monitor issue persists.
