I may be missing something obvious, but when I (for instance) right click on monitor 2 and create a new folder, it appears on monitor 1, and vice versa. I really don't care for it... if it's default, intentional behavior, is there a preference for it?

Note: my monitor config is

+----+ +----+
| 2 | | 1 |
+----+ +----+

With 2 being primary.

Thanks.

Edit: OK, I didn't realize what was going on. Files were creating on the primary monitor, regardless of which I'd right clicked on. I'd rather it created on the one I right clicked in, if possible.

Hello Zak,

The described behavior is quite strange.

Could you unload Actual Multiple Monitors and check whether the problem still persists (with Actual Multiple Monitors unloaded) or not?

Best regards.

Yes it occurs without AMM loaded. Strange. I thought it used to not do this.

Hello Zak.

Please uncheck the "Load at startup" checkbox (Options -> General -> Control Center Options -> Load at startup), reboot your system and check whether the problem occurs or not to make sure whether Actual Multiple Monitors causes this behavior or not.

Best regards.
