Solved Making 2nd monitor always display Metro Screen?

How do I make my 2nd monitor always display my start screen / metro screen?

Seems like on my 1st monitor, when ever i open chrome or IE, it closes the start/metro on monitor 2, and opens it there.

Hello gizbug,

You can't. Whenever you open a desktop app, it will close the Start screen.

You can open the Start screen from any of your displays by clicking on the Start button after hovering on the bottom left corner of that display. When you press the Windows key, it will open the Start screen on whatever display the Start screen was last closed from.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Thanks
Guess ill ditch the 2nd monitor idea then

You're welcome, but having a second monitor will still make it much easier to multitask though.

How so? What would be the best way to setup the two monitors? Not sure which should be primary and which secondary.

Newegg.com - Dell UltraSharp U2412M Black IPS Panel 24" 8ms Pivot, Swivel & Height Adjustable LED Backlight Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 DC 2,000,000:1 (1000:1)

Well, that's more of just a personal choice for which one should be set as the main display. I like having my furthest left display set as the main display.

You can always toggle open the Start screen as needed from either display.
