Hey all,

I've tried Googling this, but it is tough to word it well enough to get a good keyword search. Anyway, I run 3 monitors. More precisely, two monitors and a TV screen, which I only use occasionally. My small problem, an annoyance, is when I have stuff opened on the TV screen, but the TV is off and takes a while to boot up. Is there a program or something that could quickly bring all open applications onto screen 1? That'd be nice. An easy button... Or another solution that isn't changing my screen settings back to 2 monitors, or just turning on my TV? I'm only trying to save 15 seconds here, but hey that's the world we live in now right? No time for anything, we must have instant gratification... Even the microwave seems a little too slow these days. :langue:

When you say switch I'm assuming that you mean move the actual window from one screen to the next. This is done by either win+shift+← (or →) . If you simply have two apps running and want to switch between the two then the use of either alt+tab or win+tab will quickly switch between apps. (the win+tab looks cooler).
