If the 800x600 is on the right and a window opens in it, you can alt-tab to it or click it on the taskbar, then just hit win+leftarrow until it appears on the correct monitor. Same for win+rightarrow if other way around. Should not need to IKVM
On all Windows operating systems I have used, this workaround (winkey+left/right) unfortunately does not work for moving modal pop-ups.
For example, when starting KeePass by opening a .kdbx password safe file, KeePass will first open the master password input modal pop-up.
If that happens on a turned-off screen (IMHO it opens on the screen on which the KeePass main window was placed before the process exited on the previous run), you'll be lost.
Very frustrating, e.g. for multi-screen home theater setups.
Anyone please share your solutions to this problem.
Win + Shift + arrow works better with modals because it doesn't try and resize/pin the window but just blips it to the next screen over preserving size and location. I use it a lot when I move from my laptop to a multi-mon setup to sort windows to different screens quickly.
If you Alt-Space, M, and press one of the arrow keys, the windows will 'stick' to your mouse cursor so you can just wiggle your mouse after they key combo to bring it to you.
The old CUA, Windows 3.0 corner square has an oblong rectangle that represents the space bar (at least in my mind). Unless the window is a child window, in which case the shortcut is Alt-Hyphen[1], and I haven't used that shortcut in many years. The fashion for tabs has probably made that useless.
I was inspired by nostalgia to do the research via archive.org: This shortcut goes back to Windows 2.0, almost 35 years ago. I remembered it from the 3.1 days.
