New Microsoft Teams meeting/call window minimizing on second monitor

Has anyone been having issues with the new teams when minimizing a call or meeting it doesn't go to the bottom right of the screen teams is one but bottom left of your second monitor. I've been having this issue and don't know how to fix it. I've been using the old version of teams and I don't have any issues with it. Any suggestions would be great. I've also tried moving the box over to the left screen but every time I minimize the same call/meeting it moves to the bottom left of my second monitor.

    Thank you but as stated in other replies Changing display to primary does not work. If the Primary monitor has another monitor to the right of it, the minimized Teams window will show up on the left of the nonprimary monitor to the right (3). If I move the nonprimary display 3 (which is physically to the right) to the left of the primary monitor 2 in display setting, minimized teams shows up correctly on the primary monitor/display, bottom right.
    See Images - 2 is my primary monitor purple is where minimized teams box shows up (Which should show a shared screen and not just person talking but that's another Teams issue).

    Teams minimized should always show up on main window. It actually starts to but when it hits the bottom right of main display 2 it seems to glitch and move to monitor 3.

    I keep Teams on my main display, but when I receive a call or have a meeting it opens on my secondary display. With the old teams it used to open on my main display like I want it to and then if I share I'd share the secondary screen where I'm working. There should be a way to get new calls or meetings to open up on the same display I have Teams open on. This all started when we implemented the New version of Teams. Very frustrating.

    Hello I have the same problem but with new teams, I'm have connected 2 monitors but the one that use the most for sharing my screen the minimize, maximize and close buttons get blocked by the new toolbar when presenting. The main monitor is my laptop's but it's to small to present thus i use the external monitor.

    Please your help with this problem as is very difficult to work with the new teams.

    thanks!

    I too am having this exact same issue. The original Teams in meeting/call window minimizes to the correct lower right main monitor. The new Teams minimizes to lower left of second monitor. A drag and move doesn't correct anything.

    I found one workaround which is to swap the placement of Monitor 1 and Monitor 2. The in call window does correctly minimize to lower right of primary monitor as expected. The negative is you have to reverse direction of your cursor when moving between monitors.

    Really hoping for a fix soon from MS.

    Hi De Paul,

    I've tried what you said above and it didn't work! I'm still having the issue. Please see below to show you exactly what is happening. The box isn't displaying when I take a screen shot but if you look at the task bar on the right monitor you can see the icon on the task bar.
