Windows move to one monitor when other monitor goes to sleep or is powered off.

This isn’t a fix but a workaround. I have a Dell 5820 with an NVIDIA card with four mini-DP’s, and using four identical Samsung monitors experiencing the same symptoms as everyone.

Someone earlier stated that when a monitor goes to sleep, the DP sees it as a disconnected device. So if they wakeup in a different order the windows move (and monitor #'s change)

The work-around was to use the NVIDIA desktop manager, exported the EID info for each monitor to a file named for the monitor number that Windows assigned. EID2, EID3, EID1, EID4.

Then forced the EID for each monitor (in the NVIDIA Desktop manager) to use the correct file for it’s config rather than the EID during PnP detection.

The monitors now access the correct EID when it wakes up rather than by the order they wake up.

All monitor assignments and windows are now persistent.

Hope this helps.
