ACR filter defaults to second monitor

Question

I have a dual monitor system. I sometimes move panels to the secondary monitor and can move them back to the main monitor at will. That works well for me.

However, in recent weeks, when I choose the Camera Raw filter it automatically opens in the secondary monitor (which is not fully colour managed and therefore does not give a true representation of adjustments). I cannot manually move it to the primary monitor.

I have searched the Edit/Preferences and cannot find a way to ensure the Camera Rwas filter opens on the Main monitor.

I am using a Windows 10 PC with the lastest (25.3.1) version of Photoshop..

How do I ensure the Camera Raw filter defaults to the primary screen?

Resetting the Camera Raw preferences may fix it.In Photoshop, go to Edit > Preferences > Camera Raw. Click Camera Raw with the Control key pressed.Click Yes in the dialog that follows.

Sounds like the filter is in full screen mode, in which case it cannot be moved.

Click the double arrow in the top right corner to exit full screen mode, which will enable you drag the window to your main monitor by the title bar.
