Windows 7 How to store current window sizes and positions (and restore them later) ?

[pstein]

Assume I have opened a couple of windows for some applications on my Win 7 desktop.

Can I somehow store the current window positions and sizes (and restore them later (even after a reboot))?

As far as I remember there is a tool which ofers this feature but I don't remember the name.

Download and Install ShellFolderFix: - You can download ShellFolderFix from its official website. - Install the application on your Windows 7 system. 2. Save Window Positions: - Once installed, open the applications and arrange your windows on the desktop as you like. - Right-click on the ShellFolderFix icon in the system tray to save the current positions and sizes of the windows. 3. Restore Window Positions: - After a reboot or if you want to restore the window positions later, you can do so by opening ShellFolderFix and selecting the option to restore the saved positions. By using ShellFolderFix, you can easily manage and restore the window positions and sizes on your Windows 7 desktop.
