If you are multi-monitor user, i believe you will need MultiMon Taskbar. It is a freeware which can move any windows to another monitor.

The main feature of MultiMon Taskbar is that it can move any window to another monitor immediately. You can do so by either click on the small arrow icon beside the minimize button of each window, or use keyboard shortcut. After you launch MultiMon Taskbar, you can see the Move To Monitor button appear beside the minimize button.

There are some extra features that provide by MultiMon Taskbar:

  1. Add second Taskbar to the extend desktop. The second taskbar will show only the applications that contain in that monitor, while the main Taskbar contains only the applications in primary monitor.
  2. Adds a move to monitor button to all window.
  3. Text Clipboard Extender (which will save the latest 100 entries of your clipboard).

This application only works for Windows XP and 2003. Windows Vista users have to install the driver provide by the graphic card manufacturer.

Although it is a freeware, but the author encourage users to donate by putting his PayPal logo at the Properties page.

Note: If you don’t need the extra features or you just want the Move To Monitor arrows, you can go for MultiArrows, which is a portable version with basic feature.

    Hi Guys,
    This is a great tool for use with multiple monitors, however on first use I immediately struck a major deficiency.
    I automatically move the taskbar on any machine I use to the top of the screen, as this is a much more useful and useable position for it. The MultiMon Taskbar tool however automatically put’s it to the bottom of the second screen and won’t allow me to move it, unlike the windows one. As a result I find this more difficult to use than the standard taskbar. If this could be fixed I’d use it permanantly. As it is however I can’t.

    This software is good. But I found other program actual window manager (http://www.actualtools.com/windowmanager/) and it has more useful functions (including task bar on second monitor)

    New version of Actual Multiple Monitors (http://www.actualtools.com/multiplemonitors/) has simply the best taskbar on second monitor ever: it’s a full copy, with the Start menu, system tray, clock and toolbars (like Quick Launch, Desktop, Windows Media Player, etc.). It’s fully customizable (you can put it to any side of monitor and make it of any width/height), looks natively in any visual theme (including Win7 Aero) and can be made transparent. Kudos to Actual Tools! btw, they can give a free license to any blogger…

    This is a really cool and useful tool. In my line of work, I really need to have more than one monitor because of all the activities that are going on. This toolbar is surely going to help make things a lot easier.
