Hello,
I work with multiple screens (4 screens). All the windows open on the main screen. I'm looking for a way to open them on a specific screen. If possible, where the mouse is located (the folder or application that is present on the screen in question).
Thank you for your help...

Hello,
I only use two screens: a main one and an extended desktop for watching videos.
To ensure that an application always opens on the second screen, I follow these steps just once:
- open the application and make sure it's in windowed mode. If it's in full screen, switch it to windowed mode, close it, and reopen it.
- drag the application to the second screen and close the window
- reopen the application and set it to full screen. Then close it again.
After that, it will always open on the second screen.
I'm not sure if the same can be done for four screens.
When I don't have the second screen (my PC is a laptop), the application opens normally on the main screen. When I reconnect the secondary screen, the application opens again on the other screen.

I was losing my patience :)
The trick is really, really great!!
Because let's face it, it wasn't very intuitive.
Thanks again. I had been trying solutions for weeks without success, without thinking to do the manipulation in window mode. Excellent!!
- open the application.
- press "Shift" + "Win" + "Right arrow or left arrow" to snap the window to the side you want.
And there you go :)
