I have a Windows 10 laptop (1903, OS Build 18362.356) that is projecting to a monitor via HDMI (monitor 1) and its own screen (monitor 2).

When I run ScreenToGif the primary controls open on the monitor (1) and when I click "Recorder" those controls open on the laptop screen (2).

This is highly confusing, it should open on the same monitor as the executable at first unless otherwise moved by the user.
