I sometimes use a secondary monitor (extended display) and "forget" some windows on it. When I stop using it some windows are stuck on the secondary monitor.

I would like an option to "gather" all the windows on a monitor or, at least, to move a window to another monitor (perhaps by picking it from a list or by right clicking it's taskbar button etc).

Right now I am switching between projection modes (Super+P). Is there a simpler solution ?

Any help is appreciated, thank you for your time :-)

You can use keyboard shortcuts for window management. Use Alt + Tab to select the window that you want to move and then press Win + Shift + Left/Right to move from one monitor to another.

You may also want to try out Win + Left/Right/Up/Down
