Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    I guess it's been fixed since I last looked then! I'll have to go through it. It wasn't there when I installed W11, but there was a promise of adding it. I just didn't expect that to happen. My impression was that Microsoft thought it wasn't necessary and that users could just get used to it.

    edit: no, I can add it to all screens, but not move it to my second one. That doesn't solve the issue for me.

    I'm sorry I misunderstood what you were saying. After playing with it, you are right you can only put the taskbar on the main display or all displays. That is kind of dumb.

    The only way to do it is to make your second monitor the main display. Go to settings -> system -> display -> click monitor that you want taskbar on -> click multiple displays dropdown menu -> check make this my main display.

    Yep. That's the only way. Sadly many games have trouble handling that and start on the screen with the taskbar (which is my smaller screen in portrait orientation) with no way to move them.

    In windows 10 I was able to just drag the taskbar to my second monitor without a problem.
