Multi-Monitor Management
Made Easy

MonitorFusion gives you virtual zone layouts, per-monitor wallpapers, hotkey window movement, and magnetic snapping — all in a lightweight open-source app that lives in your system tray.

Windows 10 / 11 · No prerequisites · ~30 MB · Free & open source

Everything you need for a multi-monitor setup

Built with C# and WPF, designed to be fast, lightweight, and extensible.

Zone Layouts

Divide any monitor into custom zones — halves, thirds, quadrants, ultrawide splits, or fully custom. Drag a window and it snaps to fill the hovered zone. Each zone gets its own slim taskbar.

🖼️

Per-Monitor Wallpapers

Set a different wallpaper on each display. Save and switch between named profiles instantly. Thumbnail preview and timed auto-rotation from a folder.

⌨️

Hotkey Window Movement

Move any window to the next or previous monitor with a single keypress. Center, maximize, span across monitors. Fully configurable shortcuts.

🧲

Magnetic Window Snapping

Windows snap to monitor edges and to each other as you drag. Sticky snapping keeps them aligned during drag. Bypass with Shift. Configure distance and ignored apps.

📐

Monitor Profiles

Save and restore complete monitor configurations — resolution, position, refresh rate, and orientation. Switch between desk and laptop mode instantly.

💾

Window Layout Profiles

Save all open window positions and restore them when you reconnect your displays.

🖥️

Multi-Monitor Taskbar

Custom taskbar on secondary monitors showing only that screen's windows. Per-zone taskbars when using zone layouts.

🌙

Focus Mode

Dim inactive monitors so your eyes stay on the active screen. Configurable opacity, toggle with a hotkey.

🪶

Lightweight by Design

~30 MB self-contained installer, no .NET prerequisite. Lives quietly in your system tray and uses minimal CPU and RAM.
