Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
System Information
Operating system: Windows 11 21H1
Graphics card: RTX 2080 Ti
Blender Version
Broken: 2.93.3
Worked: Never (going back to 2.8.1 at least)
Short description of error
If you are using two monitors, and you have a Properties window on one monitor and you try to use any Object Picker, the picker will not allow you to select any object that is on the other monitor. This makes a dual screen experience very frustrating, if you have the viewport on one screen and all the properties panels on the other.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Can confirm, this is not working across multiple windows (does not even have to be on a different monitor).
Think this has been reported before, will try to dig that up.
Object Picker Doesn't Work on Second/Other Monitorto Object Picker Doesn't Work on Second windowWe had #58162 (Object/color picker only works within the same window) once, seems like the issue resurfaced

We also have #78833 (Eyedropper: Sampling on another window does not work on Linux), but since this report is for Windows: @mano-wii : could you check on this?
