Hello Astrooner Team,

I had the same problem. 

3 monitors, it started on the left one instead of the primary (middle one).

 

There's a trick I picked up from Steam forum.
Right click the game in steam library then Properties / Set Launch options and add the following : 

-WinX=0 -WinY=0

That fixed the issue for me.

 

Still, +1 for your suggestion.
This is the only game I ever played that do not open on the primary monitor.
This should be fixed at the root. 

At least, the launch option allowed me to work around that.

+1 for the work-around.

Allegedly, Win10 reads which monitor your non-maximized, non-minimized windows get closed in, and then reopen on that monitor next time by default... But not Astroneer. If I choose a larger resolution in Windowed mode than the native for my secondary (smaller) monitor and close it on the primary, it will still open on my secondary monitor next time, but start overflowing onto the primary.
