Can't display Program preview in other/third monitor (Premiere Pro 2025)

I have a 3 monitor set-up and have always used my third (laptop) monitor as a timeline output full screen display (independent of the actual Program monitor in my editing interface). Adobe often refers to this as a Program preview display. Just updated to Windows 11, and now it won't allow me to have that full display on an unused monitor. I've tried the "Video Stream" output on all three monitors to no avail (under Prefernces\Playback).

 

Oddly enough, while every other piece of software I use displays regularly, I note a degraded quality in Adobe projects, especially evident in text, be that text in AE, Photoshop or Premiere Pro...like an anti-aliasing issue or something.

 

Any advice would be most welcome.

 

Thansk,

Eric

    Middle of the 3 monitors is a higher resolution (2560 x 1080 versus the others at 1920 x 1080), but I don't think that's the issue as it's been this way for years and at my home office I have 2 x 2K and 1 x 4K and there's no issue there.

     

    Thanks much for anything anyone might be able to tell me.

     

    Best,

    Eric

    Hi @Eric Bungay,

     

    Thanks for the message. Welcome to the forums. Are all the monitors in the same resolution?  I suspect your issue may be related to this one. If you have time, please give the team a few more details. See: How do I write a bug report?

     

    I hope we can help you soon. Sorry for the pain points.
