I tried all the complex methods, but what really did the trick was simply setting my second monitor as the main display in Windows. CS:GO now launches there by default, no fuss!

Nah, just right-click on your desktop, go to Display Settings, and set your 2nd monitor as the main display. That's it. CS:GO will think it's your only monitor and stay there.

Honestly, why bother? Just play it on your main monitor like everyone else. It's less hassle.

So you wanna keep CS:GO on your second monitor? Easy peasy. First off, you gotta make sure your second monitor is set as the primary display in your computer's display settings. Windows loves to play favorites, so tell it which monitor you're actually favoring. If you're feeling adventurous, you can dive into the game settings and switch CS:GO to windowed mode, then just drag it over to your second screen. Once it's there, switch it back to fullscreen. Boom, done.
