As it states, I did a windows update, and now the game opens in the secondary monitor, not the primary.  No matter what I try, I can't get it corrected. 

Edit:

So the game main screen opens up in the correct monitor, but if I select an arena, it jumps to the wrong monitor.

When I go to Video Settings, the correct display is highlighted.

I just pasted this into GPT and it had some ideas. I suggest you give it a shot. It might fix it.

Can you do Windows+Shift+Left or Right to get it to move to the correct screen?

have you tried to just change to the other monitor in the video selection?

Back to normal.  What I did was set the video to screen 2, go to an arena, back out, restart the game, set video to screen 1.
