As the title says, after a fresh boot the presets will not enable the secondary monitor. I need to enable the secondary monitor via the main application at least once before the presets will work.
Using 3.0beta demo on VIA UniChrome IGP.

Does the display profile apply the settings to the correct monitor? Maybe the monitor numbers got changed.

Yes, the profiles work as configured. Resolution, positions, refresh, etc. are all correct but they don't work until the monitor has been enables using the main app.

I should be a bit more specific:
The monitor must be enabled by right-clicking the UltraMon tray icon and going to "Display Properties" and enabling the secondary monitor by checking the enabled button.
Right-clicking the UltraMon icon and selecting "Enable secondary monitor" does not work, nor does configuring the ultramon icon to enable the secondary monitor when double-clicked.
the commandline switch to enable the secondary monitor does work.

Unfortunately I don't know what might cause this.
What's weird is that the command line switch, /e, works, this should be identical to UltraMon menu > Enable Secondary.

I'll try creating a .cmd script to enable the monitor and load the profile when i get back from vacation, should be a few days left on my demo.
I'm mostly bothered that the presets didn't work, since it kind of defeats the purpose of presets if you have to manually change it the first time each boot. A script would be an OK workaround, but I was hoping i could simply create the different monitor configurations i use as presets and then make shortcuts to them.
I just verified that the enable secondary monitor CL switch definitely works when the same action done via the menu does not work.
