How do I move the game from one monitor to a second?

[Nerdygamer1]

I'm running a dual-monitor setup and, for years, have had Bloons automatically open on the second monitor. One new graphics card later, and the game is now opening on the main monitor.

I've gone into the settings, deselected the "fullscreen" option, and reduced the resolution, but the game doesn't have a border. There's nothing for me to click and drag to move the game to my second monitor. Using alt+enter yields a similar result.

I've tried shift+windows key+left/right/up/down and double-checking that my windows key wasn't disabled.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game.

The only thing that worked was making my secondary monitor my main monitor through the display settings, opening the game, then going back to my first monitor and reverting it back to my main monitor again, but this doesn't persist; opening the game again opens it on the wrong monitor. It's also a pain in the butt.

Here is what I can suggest, it might be able to help you, go into settings, pick a size smaller than your screen size, uncheck fullscreen if it's selected and click ok.

You should hopefully have a title bar to move it to the other screen via click and drag.

You can then either use Alt+Enter or use settings and check fullscreen then ok to get the game to show on the other monitor at fullscreen.

Hopefully this works for you.

That was the first thing I tried, but for whatever reason the game doesn't have a title bar. I've tried clicking and dragging the game screen, the top of the game screen, and where a title bar would normally be, but to no avail.

So I took a look some more, apparently, in windows, it's stored in the windows registry

Please note, messing with the windows registry can break your windows computer if you don't know what you're doing, as there is no backups done for any changes.

The rest of the instructions are if you are on Windows, specifically I'm gonna go through as on Windows 10, as that's what I'm using. I have no idea on any other operating system.

1st, make sure the game isn't running.

Either press Win key+R and type regedit and press enter, or start menu, type reg and click on Registry Editor, you will need to accept the User Account Control box in order to continue if it shows.

At the top of the registry editor under the menus, select the whole thing and type (or copy and paste) then press enter:

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Ninja Kiwi\BloonsTD6

in the right side, at the bottom should be a thing with a name that starts with UnitySelectMonitor, double click it, then change the value to 0 if you want it on your main monitor, 1 if you want it on your second monitor, 2 if you have a 3rd monitor and want it there, and so on. Base doesn't matter unless you have 11 or more monitors.

After entering the number, select ok and close the Registry Editor. Next time you run the game it should appear on the selected monitor.

That worked! I even restarted my computer and the game still goes to the correct monitor; excellent!
