I had the start button on my main monitor to the left but lost that feature

How do i get it back, i have it on my secondary monitor with display fusion but that only works on one monitor and that is my secondary monitor

PLEASE don't show me how to move my start button and shortcuts to the left as in the video , that's not what i want,asking for

This is pretty much what all videos do if it's about moving the start button to the left and that is NOT what i want (and many others)

NOT THE RIGHT WAY, people think this is how we want our start button and icons,shortcuts when we want the start button to the left

StartAllBack just forced me to have wallpapers i didn't want, as sone as i deleted StartAllBack i could customize what ever wallpapers i want with display fusion

Not how i want it

I just have one problem i don't seem to be able to fix

I only wanna have the taskbar on the monitor where an app is open, to show it's open, not having both taskbars (the second monitor is on top of my main monitor) show the same, instead of each taskbar is showing 100% the same

If tidal is open on monitor 2 make the taskbar on monitor 2 show it, not on both monitors

Yes, that's why i ask

PLEASE don't show me how to move my start button and shortcuts to the left as in the video , that's not what i want,asking for

Not how i want it an then theres a video link

Everybody thinks that you want the start button + the shortcuts moved to the left like this (picture 1), therefor you can't use youtube to see how you make your taskbar look like picture nr 2

Keep on digging, you might find your answer, what about creating a quick launch bar to fill in the space?

Can 't seem to get open shell to move my start button on my main monitor to the left with centered shortcuts

Like some app is prioritized over open shell and therefor don't have the admin,right what ever it needs, for the app to move the start button to where i want it

2024-08-27 09_32_31-Settings for Open-Shell Menu 4.4.191.jpg



What do i do ?
