How to get Chrome to remember which monitors to open on

@DustinB3403 What I want to happen

@DustinB3403 What I get instead...
-
@CCWTech I wish I had that monitor setup
As for getting everything to open on a separate monitor and with the content you had open I'm not sure of off hand. I only use two monitors... and all of my content is constantly changing.
-
@DustinB3403 I wish I could add two more honestly! But it's so frustrating because with Ubuntu, it just worked... If only there were more apps written for Ubuntu!
-
@CCWTech download the MS power toys and use fancy zones.
-
@Obsolesce Ok, I'll look at this, thanks!

Unless I am missing something, it looks like that won't work. It all opens in ONE Window. So I don't see that it will drag the tabs the way they were...
And just this evening I went to watch TV and I came back... Guess what? Windows decided to reboot for updates while I was gone...
I gotta go back to Ubuntu I suppose... I just wish there were better games for it...

I use Edge, multiple tabs and windows, along with a platform that uses multiple windows. I use FancyZones to keep it where I want, and it always remembers it. I don't remember if there's a setting in PowerToys to "remember". There might be actually. It even remembers where everything is when I take off a monitor or put it back. (laptop with two monitor extensions from it in that case, another case dual monitors)
Never any issues with it remembering where all my browser and software windows are. I can't imagine it working with Edge but not Google Chrome.

Lol. That's your own fault for ignoring the updates for so long and/or not setting your active hours and other update preferences.

I use Ubuntu as well, and never had an issue playing any and all Windows games on it. Some may not have behaved or performed as well as on Windows, but if you're that bad with Windows it's likely not going to be a show stopper for you.
