    It does this on my 3 screen setup too. Always starts on a window on the left.

    if you hit the show desktop icon (where everything minimizes) when you click on the NW icon after that, the launcher seems to load on the primary monitor.

    This happened to me after I used my tv as a monitor. I have windows 7 and I used the method below to fix the problem.

    Use ALT+TAB to switch to the off-screen application.
    Press ALT-SPACE to bring up the system menu (you won't see it because it is off screen)
    Press R to select the "Restore" menu choice to ensure the windows isn't is maximized (you can not move it if it is maximized)
    Press ALT-SPACE again, then M to select the "Move" menu choice.
    Press one of the arrow keys to initiate the movement.
    Now just use the mouse to place the window where you want.
    If you are using a non-english version of Windows, the "R" and "M" menu choices probably will be different.

    I only use a single monitor and was having the issue, this worked though, TYVM!

    Thanks, exactly what I needed. For some reason I never hit an arrow key. I know better. Total brain HAMSTER.
