from Stardock Forums

Using Start8 on dual monitors, might have bug.

clicking windows 8 menu on monitor 1 brings up w8 menu on monitor 1.

clicking windows 8 menu on monitor 2 brings up w8 menu on monitor 1?

without Start8 w8 menu pops up on monitor clicked on.

 

not a problem, but not what I want.

 

solution?

Which version of Windows 8 are you using?

8 or 8.1?

I have a similar but not exact problem with Start 8 myself.  Dual monitor set up running in extended mode on Windows 8.1 64bit.  The Start button works fine on desktop 1 but on Desktop 2 it does nothing.

It's not a huge problem but it is annoying, since if I want an app to open up on the second screen specifically, then currently I have to open it on Desktop 1 and then drag it to Desktop 2.  And since I open most all metro apps on the second monitor then I have to do this quite often.

Any ideas?

I have a similar problem, with Start8 Monitor 2 start button opens Start8 menu on monitor 2, monitor 1 start button opens start menu on monitor 2.  I have it work on my other computer with out problems, its my main desktop that is having issues.
