 How to get steam games to play on second monitor

To get Steam games to play on a second monitor, follow these steps:

1. Connect your second monitor to your computer and ensure that it is turned on.

2. Open Steam on your computer and click on "Library" to see your list of games.

3. Right-click on the game you want to play and select "Properties" from the context menu.

4. In the Properties window, click on the "Set launch options" button.

5. In the "Launch Options" window, type in the following command: "-windowed -w [width] -h [height]", where [width] and [height] are the resolution of your second monitor. For example, if your second monitor has a resolution of 1920x1080, you would type "-windowed -w 1920 -h 1080" (without the quotes).

6. Click on "OK" to close the "Launch Options" window.

7. Close the Properties window.

8. Launch the game by clicking on the "Play" button in the Library.

9. The game will now launch in windowed mode on your primary monitor.

10. Drag the game window to your second monitor and maximize it to play the game on the second monitor.

Note: Not all games support playing in windowed mode or may require additional steps to set up. Additionally, some games may require you to change the video settings in the game to match the resolution of your second monitor.
