Different projects have different default monitors

I’m only experiencing this recently, but while the majority of my Scrivener projects open in my default monitor on a three monitor setup, several consistently open on a secondary one. And no matter what I do, opening them, moving them across, closing them again, they always persist in opening on the secondary one.
It wouldn’t be a huge issue except the Composition view ALSO opens in that secondary monitor even if the main window has been shifted across. And also ProwritingAid Everywhere gets buggy once you move the app across, (it marks the underlines in the THIRD monitor, bizarre).
Anyone else seen this behaviour or have thoughts on how to fix it?
Thanks.

Make the project on the external project full screen.
Select Win+Shift+Arrow Left or Right to get the project on the default screen.
Do a slight edit, like a pressing the space bar.
Close the project, which will now save.
When you open it, it will be on the default monitor.

Thanks Revo. That’s worked, with one note. I’d tried exactly that before BUT I’d had a second project open (that was opening on the correct monitor). What worked this time was moving it across as you described but making sure that it was the ONLY project open.
Thank you though, your reply helped me work out the extra element!
