    Preventing Win10 From Moving Programs to Different Screen After Sleep?


    It's a productivity killer when Windows 10 re-positions some of my programs after every time it wakes up from sleep or when my monitors shut off after 20mins.

    I tried everything I could from re-installing graphics driver and I even re-installed my Windows 10 from scratch.
    Nothing worked. I have to turn it to this forum.

    I use Windows 10 X64, my GPU is GTX 970.

    Thank you.

    There are many similar threads out there, mostly with old drivers problems. One of the solutions could also be setting the same scale for all monitors:

    Which kind of connections do you use?
