Description: This is probably a Windows 11 problem but it only happens with Libre Office. I am using version 7.5.9.2 on an Acer Swift notebook with one additional large monitor. I use the notebook screen as my desk top but open all programs on the additional monitor. Up until a couple of updates last year Libre Office always opened on the additional monitor but then started opening on the notebook screen. I have tried dragging Libre Office to the correct monitor, closing it there and restarting the notebook but it always reverts to the notebook screen when I next use it. I have tried other remedies found by Googling but nothing works. It’s not a great problem just an irritation to have to drag Libre Office to the required monitor every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open Libre Office 2.Drag to required monitor 3.Close Libre Office Restart computer Start Libre Office Actual Results: Libre Office reverts to wrong monitor after computer restart. Expected Results: Libre Office should remember which monitor it was last used in. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 7.5.9.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: cdeefe45c17511d326101eed8008ac4092f278a9 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 22621; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: en-GB (en_GB); UI: en-GB Calc: threaded
Thanks for the report. Can you still reproduce with LO 7.6? (7.5 won't see further updates.) Do the results change depending on which monitor is on the left? We have a similar linux report in bug 153920.
Neil replied via email: ----------- "I would not normally have installed version 7.6 until it was offered to me as an update but I have installed 7.6 and the problem is still there. As far as I can tell the monitor position does not alter the problem. However, I have found that the problem only seems to occur when LibreOffice is closed from a maximised window. If it is closed from a sized window, that is something less than maximised, it opens the next time on the same monitor and does not revert to the left hand monitor. I hope this helps"
