  1. Cursor drags out to second monitor while in game after update 23H2


    My cursor drags out of games on my first monitor to my second monitor and update KB5046633 didn't do anything to solve it. It's only when I press Win + G game bar which when I do that is when it starts happening until I restart my PC. Here are the thing's I've tried and haven't done anything to help me:SOLUTIONS I'VE TRIED:- Tried reverting back to an update before 23H2 After reverting the update before this happened, it still happens regardless- Updated to preview build which would solve the issue with a patch but didn't- Used multi-monitor tools like DMT and DisplayFusion but didn't real

  2. Both monitors work but cant drag to second one.

    Hello Ken,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

    We understand the inconvenience you have experienced.

    • What happens, when you try to drag the windows to second monitor?
    • Will it disappear or it won't allow you to put on second monitor?
    • Is your computer up to date with Windows Updates? Press Windows logo key + R, type
      winver and hit Enter key. Now see the version and build number.
    • Are you able to move cursor to second monitor?
    • When did you observe this behavior?

    Give us above details to analyze the issue.

    How can I drag a screen display onto an adjoining satellite monitor?

    Hi Stewart,

    In order for us to assist you dragging a screen to your satellite monitor, you can follow these steps:

    • Move the cursor off each of the four screen edges to see if one of them works.
    • If it does, position the monitors in the Display > Screen Resolution window
      to match the physical placement of the monitors.
    In the event that the previous steps failed to work, you can try these:

    • In the display settings just swap the
      Display1 and Display2 Monitors.
    • Drag the Monitor1 display icon and
      drop it on Monitor2 display icon, this would give you the correct alignment of screens.

    Don’t hesitate to contact us if you have further inquiries.

    Cursor drags out to second monitor while in game after update 23H2

    Two Monitors


    Thanks RWOne. I've extended my primary monitor, opened an Acrobat file, but can't figure out how to drag it to the second monitor. I've been dragging it but nothing happens. The Acrobat icon is open on the second monitor but I can't get my cursor over there to click on it. I'm obviously missing one tiny critical step . . . .
