    Hi, first time posting here. I hope I post in the right section.

    So, as the title say I can't display it on the second monitor even if I set it to run on either monitor 1 or 2 on the settings and in-game settings. Demonstration below


    The only way to display is to make my second monitor set as "main display". Any other way to fix the problem?

    Additional Note :
    1. Laptop only have 1 video output (HDMI)
    2. The Second monitor is using old VGA input and running with HDMI to VGA adapter
    3. Dual GPU laptop (Intel HD + Nvidia GTX 1050)
    4. Already tried to verify integrity.
    5. Other games don't have this problem.

    I've seen this mentioned a couple of times, I know in about 2017 someone wasn't happy because an update stopped the monitor selection working, I suspect nothing has changed since. So for now I'd say you're stuck with the main display workaround.

    Thanks for the reply, didn't know this problem already exist. I tried to find this problem on the forum earlier but can't find any.

    Did you ever find a solution to this as I'm having the exact same issue and can't find a fix.
