Hi, I've just navigated there but no setting seems to be useful to get the start menu opening in the right display... :sigh: It doesn't matter where the cursor or focus is, the start menu always gets opened at the first display when I press the Windows key...

You want the menu to come up on the righthand monitor?

:(( Time ago I used Actual Multiple Monitors in windows 7 and it worked like this and it is a joy... Simply press windows key and then navigate the menu as you want (mouse, keyboard...), but it will open in your current display. A pity it's not here... Well, less is nothing... Thank you! :thumbsup:

Yeah, maybe it'll come back... :sigh:

Not that exactly... I want the menu to appear in the display I have the focused window: If I'm working on the middle display then I want the menu to appear there, if I am working in the third display I want the menu to appear there...

If you find success, please post here. I've had times where I thought I had it beat, only to eventually come in to work to see the lovely cave image and bite my lip as I realize that I had at least half a dozen projects, multiple spreadsheets, a few notepad windows as scratch areas, and at least one unsaved query in SSMS. The projects and spreadsheets are fine, but I hate to think how many 'notes' I have lost over the last year and a half with 10. X| Win7 had me spoiled that way, now just have to get used to tidying up before leaving. Luckily, in just a few hours, I'll be on vacation for a week...going on my first cruise with my wife, idiot brother in-law and his wife. Bon voyage! See you suckers in a week! :laugh:

The pending updates on my Windows 10 computer did not get deployed overnight, so perhaps I have found a setting that works. The problem is that I don't know which approach is working, but more importantly, as you and other people out there have indicated, I don't know if this will last. 1. I followed the steps in this article: How To Turn Off Automatic Updates In Windows 10 Via Registry[^] , but the UI in my Settings did not change to match the screen shots in that article. 2. This one I cooked up on my own: - Opened the Local Group Policy Editor (run gpedit.msc) - Under
Computer Configuration | Administrative Templates | Windows Components | Windows Update
- I openedTurn off auto-restart for updates during active hours
- Set it toEnabled
- SetActive Hours
to start and end at the same time,8 AM
. The comment in the window says "Note that the max active hours length is 12 hours from the Active Hours Start Time", so I don't know if the MS logic will ignore the End Time I configured, if it will interpret my settings as a 24 hour active day, if it will implode the universe or do something else."When you don't know what you're doing it's best to do it quickly" - Jase #DuckDynasty
