Start10 opens on the correct monitor, but choosing submenu changes monitors

from Stardock Forums

I have 2 monitors: 1 is 4K, the 2nd is 1920x1080. When I open Start10 on the 4k monitor, everything is fine. When I use the 2nd monitor, it initially looks fine, but going to the submenu for an icon will 'pop' Start10 to the first monitor's right hand side.

Start10 v1.96

Windows 10 Pro 20H2 build 19042.867 Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.551.0

No other products similar to Start10 installed, am using DisplayFusion Pro for 2nd monitor taskbar.

Scaling on 4k (left, primary) monitor is 150% (Recommended). Resolution 3840 x 2160 native.

Scaling on right monitor is 100% (Recommended), Resolution 1920 x 1080 native.

Taskbar on both monitors is bottom edge, displayed always.

Can you try not to use DisplayFusion's taskbar for the second monitor and use Windows taskbar instead, for the second monitor. And see if that help solve your issue.

Thank you,

Okay, that appears to have done it.

Didn't think the programs would interact that way, but I guess they did.
