There many ways to specify which monitor and how it starts on the monitor; in the user files; one of which is to edit the playerprefs.datThe issue I have is I cant get to windowed mode because it launches on my vertical monitor. Everything gets condensed so I cant really click anything. I am trying to avoid disabling my second monitor but its going to mess up the organization I have on my desktop and I want to avoid that lol
HKCU\Software\[company name]\[product name]
or
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Packages[ProductPackageId]>\LocalState\playerprefs.dat
or
Users\[yourname]\AppData\LocalLow\[project]
Just like any other unity game.
You could also delete all user files, this should reset the monitor placement as well.
User files should be found within the same folder as the .log files
Default locations are:
Linux. ~/.config/unity3d/
macOS. ~/Library/Logs/Unity/
Windows. C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Unity\Editor\
Another option:
First option Hold shift and double click on the game: It should open a Unity windows that allows you to choose your monitor.
Second option to start the game on your #_ monitor is to add these options when you launch the .exe shortcut of the game:
-show-screen-selector
If neither of these work, you could try switch the monitors as the vertical one is being seen as 00 and the non vertical one is being seen as 01, ie in settings too reverse them. But this may
mess up the organization I have on my desktop and I want to avoid that lol
