How to make an app always open on a specific monitor

Use KeyRoutines' Window opened trigger for the app, then a Move and resize step that puts it on the monitor and part of the screen you want. Every time the app opens a window, it lands in the same place, whatever Windows decided.

Steps

1. 1

   Watch for the window

   Add the Window opened trigger and pick the app, for example Discord or Slack. You can also match a window title.

2. 2

   Move it

   Add Move and resize for the window that opened, choose the monitor, and draw the part of the screen it should fill.

3. 3

   Maximize if you like

   Set the placement's state to maximized if the app should fill that monitor.

Tips

• Match by window title when an app opens several kinds of windows and only one of them should move.
• If the monitor isn't connected, the placement falls back to the role you chose, such as the main monitor.
