Using the same TLB on multiple monitors works great. Except, the plug-in Weather Forecast only works on one of the TLB's (the last added). On the prior monitor "N/A" is displayed (never updated) and on the newly added TLB the moon state and temperature is always updated.

Are the both toolbars created with the the standalone TLB? Maybe you have to setup your firewall to allow internet access for explorer if toolbar on the taskbar and tlbhost.exe for standalone toolbars.

1. I always forget what the standalone TLB is; I rarely create new TLBs.

2. All I did was take a TLB that I've been using for a couple of years and right-click taskbar > Toolbars... > True Launch Bar... > Select Folder... and specify the folder path for the existing TLB on the other monitor's taskbar. Everything works great except: The Weather Forecast only works on the newly added location and the original displays "N/A" -- does this additional information help?

NOTE: For what ever reason, both are working today. I'm guessing that there is some small glitch that occurs when you do the above process and you *don't* reboot. I think I've had my system up for weeks and only gone into sleep mode (not a restart). I don't know what else it could be.

What else can I provide to assist?

Do you use the same toolbar folder for both toolbars?

How do I verify if the same "toolbar folder" is being used for both toolbars?

It's a hit and miss with the Weather Forecast v6.1, sometimes both are toolbars are in sync and other times they are out-of-sync. They seem to get out-of-sync if I put the system into "sleep" mode. On a reboot they are in sync until "sleep" mode occurs.

Thanks for any suggestions to resolve.

Right-click the empty space of toolbar and select "Open". TLB will open the toolbar folder in the Windows Explorer.

Yes, both TLB toolbars are using the same toolbar.

Usually I don't recommend use two toolbars with the same toolbar folder. There are possible problems with plugins. You can make a copy of the toolbar folder and select the new folder for the second toolbar. Add toolbar folder in TLB Settings->Options->Toolbars then right-click any toolbar, select "Switch toolbar" and click the created toolbar.

Also you have to delete the Weather Forecast plugin on one of the toolbars and create it again. This will prevent the conflict of two plugins.
