R6 Siege Defaults to Second Monitor?
I added a second monitor for streaming... whenever I launch the game it defaults to the #2 monitor and not the main. Any ideas on how to fix this? I'm running a non-Steam version of the game.

Many of the latest Ubisoft games have the toggle for choosing a default monitor. You may wanna check it out in the game options.

Thanks for the correct answer... the option to select which monitor you would like to display the game from, was indeed located in the "Display" tab within the game. Excellent.

Just parroting CursedPanther here because after following his general suggestion the problem was solved, but the EXACT directions are... go to the "Display" tab in Rainbow SIx Seige and there is an option to select which monitor to display from. Select your monitor, go back to game and it should work. If for some reason it does not. Go back to "Display" make your choice, restart the game, and it will work. Best wishes!

I cant even see it bc it launches on the wrong monitor :steamsad: the second monnitor that it launches on just goes black with a message that reads: analog out of range 67.5kHz / 60Hz

As people stated, there is a setting in the display tab that lets you select the monitor. If that doesn't work, you can always mess around with display settings on your computer to select the default monitor or something to that extent.

Disconnect the unnecessary monitor first to force the game to display on the right one. Then you can change the settings.

I recently had this issue and it would not let me select my monitor in the game settings so I had to make it display only on my main monitor in the windows display setting. Launch my game then set it back to expand these displays. That’s the only way I found to get it back on my main monitor.

It doesnt let me switch display monitors because it just automatically switches back and its just that game
