Might be worth a shot but I would guess that restarting the comnputer would just reset it.
As you guessed, it works temporarily, and the debug log gives me:

Code:
Debug: Primary Screen:  "\\\\.\\DISPLAY1" "" ""
Debug:     geo        :  QRect(0,0 1920x1080)
Debug:     avail   geo:  QRect(0,0 1920x1040)
Debug:     devideRatio:  1
Debug:     logical dpi:  96 96
Debug:     physic  dpi:  81.28 80.6824
Debug: 

All Screens

Debug:     devideRatio:  1

Debug:     avail   geo:  QRect(1920,0 1920x1040)
Debug:     devideRatio:  1
Debug:     logical dpi:  96 96
Debug:     physic  dpi:  81.28 80.6824
...but reverts after a restart, so not an ideal solution.

I also tried a few methods to change the monitor numbers, including this one, but they would either not work at all, or revert after a PC restart.

Yeah, even if I could fix it on my end, getting cavalier with the registry is a bit much to expect from the average end-user. Hopefully they'll be able to figure something out on their end soon.

In the meantime, I'll probably have to go back to 1.9.30 for the time being, but if there's anything else you'd like me to try at any point, let me know (by DM if you'd prefer to let this thread go stale). And in any case, I appreciate the help and for Sigil in general.
