Move icons back to main screen

[Out Of Bubblegum]

I swapped video cards. Then I set up dual screens again. My second "screen" is a receiver. Most of my icons moved over to the second screen. If I turn off the receiver, they come back. When I first did this on the old video card it did the same thing. I remember there is an easy way to bring them all to the primary screen. But I can't find that info now. How do I get them all onto the primary display?

I found it. It is ctrl-mouse scroll wheel. Leaving this here for future reference. Someone else my find this. :)

is the receiver doing hdmi switching for the display?

why not just plug the display directly into the gpu
you can have another hdmi or spdif cable do audio to the reciever

No. My old 1080P monitor connected through the receiver. My problem is that I have an ultrawide 3440x1440 monitor. The receiver says it can do 4K. But I think it only knows TV resolutions. I can only get 1080P to the monitor through the receiver. That is why I had to set up two screens and "extend the displays". You have to do extend the displays to get the ability to use the audio on that second cable to the receiver.
So I have the monitor on displayport and the receiver on HDMI. The icons moving is a Microsoft bug.

with newer gpus you can have its hdmi output audio with no video

if the receiver is doing res changes its adding delays
you should be using dvi/dp for avove 1080p60 anyway

just make sure windows is set to use the correct on as the primary/main display
the extended one can be turned off without the main displays icons moving around

and there are programs to save/restore desktop icon locations

You can just run an hdmi cable from the gpu to the receiver and use the screen video and higher refresh via dp. Then in Nvidia control panel switch the audio to hdmi.
