Installing MultiMonitor Taskbar
To download this software for free, simply navigate to the product’s page and click on the free version in the lower right corner.

It’s hard to see the significance this holds for the average user, but being able to dedicate a program to a certain monitor and have it stay there upon minimization is a godsend.
