If you use multiple monitors, one has to be the primary (in windows). It can be quite annoying to have popups open on the primary monitor, while the application is open on a secondary monitor. Also it doesn’t seem to be consistent. A task will open on the same monitor regardless if its primary or another, but a popup screen or things like location will open on the primary monitor.

Is there any way to steer/influence this behaviour? Without messing with the primary display setting in windows.

We are using the windows gui.

Short answer, no this is not possible. Perhaps there is some external solution for this, but none I know of. If you feel this could benefit multiple customers/developers then feel free to post an idea for this in the ideas section.
