Dual Monitor Tools System Requirements
DMT is famously lightweight. If your PC can run Windows, it can run DMT.
Minimum requirements
| Operating system | Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7 (32-bit and 64-bit) |
| .NET Framework | 4.0 or later (pre-installed on Windows 10/11) |
| Disk space | Under 2 MB |
| Memory | A few megabytes in the system tray |
| Monitors | Two or more recommended; some features work with one |
Administrator rights
Most features work as a standard user. You only need to run DMT as administrator if you want it to control windows owned by elevated programs (for example, Task Manager). The portable version is the easiest choice on locked-down work PCs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does DMT work on Windows 11?
Yes — version 2.13 fully supports Windows 11 and Windows 10, including mixed-DPI setups and virtual desktops.
Does Dual Monitor Tools work on Mac or Linux?
No. DMT is Windows-only. There is no macOS or Linux version, and the developer has no plans for one.
Do I need two monitors to use DMT?
Not strictly — some features like the launcher’s magic words are useful on a single screen, but the tool is designed for two or more monitors.
