Hello,
Version 3.0.7 Beta, for months working flawless. Even now, well, except that recently, one "feature" slowly drives me mad.
For better work, I’ve placed Win Taskbar on my third monitor where I also keep Thunderbird and notification screens. 4 monitors to be exact. For some reason, even thou I have returned taskbar on the first screen (mostly resides there anyway) but, for some irritating reason; every time I call any desktop folder now - it shows on third monitor :(
The same priorities, the same setup, nevertheless properties screens and mostly desktop folders open first on third screen. Sure, I send them where I want them... but how do I remedy this?
And what really triggered this annoyance? The most important thing I wanted to ask Christian: where is that neat option hidden that allows for every application or folder to be shown where mouse action appears?
I know that I have seen this option, but for life of me, I just can’t find the same anymore. Option that cares only about mouse movement: so if you move your mouse from the 1st or the 4th monitor - that is where application or folder would show.
Thank you as always

What happens if you close Windows Explorer on the first monitor? Does it then open on that monitor the next time? This is the behavior I see on Windows 7, not sure if that's the case on earlier versions of Windows as well.
To use UltraMon to position an application, right-click the application shortcut, select Properties from the menu, then select the UltraMon - Window tab and configure the settings as desired. To position the application on the monitor with the mouse, set the monitor option to Monitor with Mouse. Please note that UltraMon won't be able to position Windows Explorer windows.

Forgive my late reply Christian and thank you for your reply. Well to make it short - it was relation between explorer, long uptime (several months) interval and desperate need for fresh boot. Once fresh boot showed its glory, everything is back to normal.
Explorer.exe tends to be unfriendly with longer uptimes in relation to Ultramon, but, many other applications as well. Specially when I frequently changes languages for my documents and writing. After some periods it gets "fat" for lack of more exact description and only kill/wake of this process would bring things back to normal and responsive again. And in some situations, only after fresh boot.
