I've got two monitors connected to my computer. There is an application that I want to open in the secondary monitor, however if I drag it over to the desired monitor it will still open in the primary monitor on next startup unlike most other programs.
So I were wondering if I can make some changes to the shortcut to force it into the desired monitor, either by adding some fancy stuff after the target of the shortcut or by launching it with some bat file etc.

There must be a default setting within Windows somewhere. I have found after 5-10 times (or less) closing the app on the secondary monitor....it "learns" to open on that monitor. I suppose you have tried this and it's not working. If not.....close the app on that monitor 5 times and see if that does it.
