    I have an HP d6000 series notebook and a dual monitor set up. When I right clicked a video file today, I noticed a little option on the bottom of the menu called "Play on my...". When I scrolled over, it opened a sub-menu with the names of both my monitors listed. I clicked my secondary monitor, and the video was played on it full screen, just as I thought it would. But, now every time I play any video, it plays in the video player on my first monitor AND fullscreen on my second monitor. How do I disable this?

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    I noticed just now that the fullscreen video on my second monitor is actually playing almost as not a part of Windows, as it plays, but things in a window under it can still be clicked without affecting the video.

    EDIT: Scratch this, I figured it out.It was my NVIDIA settings for my sec monitor.
