ReMonitor
by LeeByte
ReMonitor is a Fabric client mod that makes Minecraft reopen on the monitor it last used instead of always launching on the primary display.
What it does
Minecraft normally starts on the primary monitor, which is a nuisance for players who work with several screens. ReMonitor stores the display the game was last on and places the window there when it starts again, so the window stays where the player left it without dragging it across the desktop each time.
The mod is a small quality-of-life addition. It sets up its placement automatically once it is installed and aims to keep the cost low, so it is light on resources. Fullscreen is restored along with the window, so the game returns to the same display state it had before closing. It needs Fabric API and runs on the client alone, so it is only installed on the player's own machine.
ReMonitor is open source, released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and it is published for Fabric across 28 release versions, 1.19 – 26.2, with 1.0.2+26.2.x for 26.2 as the latest file, first released on 2025-10-01 and last updated on 2026-09-15. Public source code and an issue tracker are available.
Key features
Remembers the last monitor
The game stores the display it was last on and reopens on that monitor the next time it starts.
Automatic placement
Once installed, the mod places the window on the saved monitor without any manual setup.
Fullscreen restoration
When the game was in fullscreen on its last display, fullscreen is restored on that same display at launch.
Lightweight design
The mod is built to keep its impact on the game small, with no ongoing work beyond startup placement.

How it compares
Borderless Mining Revived is a Fabric client mod for 1.21.11 – 26.3, released under the MIT License and open source, and it covers borderless window behavior rather than display memory. OBS Recording Monitor is a Fabric client mod for 1.20.1 – 26.3 under the MIT License, open source, aimed at recording. Window Control covers Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21.1 – 26.2 and is not open source, so ReMonitor differs in its loader and license.
