Secondary windows on wrong screen after switching app to other monitor

[Psiwuff]

I use a two monitor setup, depending on the use case I will send photoshop either to the drawing tablet or my main screen. The issue that arises is that photoshop defaults to the tablet, and moving it over to the main screen will still open any prompts, filters and other such windows on the tablet, which oftentimes is off while not in use.

This is cumbersome and annoying, if possible, please implement a solution where photoshop opens auxiliary windows and prompts on the same screen it currently resides on. If there is an existing solution, please do let me know!

This happens on windows 10 with latest version of PS

Hi @Psiwuff 

Let's make sure we're in a default state and there are no stale settings somewhere: 

Restore your preferences using this manual method:

Does it work correctly? 

If that doesn't solve it, you can quit Photoshop and put the Settings folder back. 

It may help if we could see your Photoshop System Info. Launch Photoshop, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.  

Thank you,

Cory

I have the same problem while using 2 monitors. I deleted the preferences and still have the same problem. I'm on an iMac.

Have you tried opening Photoshop, dragging it's window onto the correct screen, quitting Photoshop and reopening it? 

That worked for me a while back when I had your issue

I hope this helps
