Windows 10: Applications not opening at same location and in same size after reopening

I tried the suggested steps:

• 
  
  Right click on the icon of the application and click on Properties.
  Under Run select the size of the window from the drop-down list.
  Now, click on Apply and OK.
  
  I am unable to find a run tab in Properties. Is there anyone that can show the steps by using pictures where "Run" is.
  
  
  Thanks,
  

:)

 

Applications not opening at same location and in same size after reopening

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand how frustrating it could be when the computer doesn’t work properly. However, we will need some information from you:

• Are you facing this issue with all the applications or with specific application?
  

You can change the size for opening of the program as Normal Window, Maximized or Minimized. Please follow the steps mentioned below to change the settings:

• Right click on the icon of the application and click on Properties.
  
• Under Run select the size of the window from the drop-down list.
  
• Now, click on Apply and OK.
  

Ideally, the applications are opened on the same position on the screen as they were closed last time. This issue may be due to a profile corruption. Hence, in order to eliminate possibilities, I would suggest you to create a new user account, and
check if the issue persists. Follow the steps from the article
Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10 to create
a new user account.

Hope it helps.

Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.

Applications not opening at same location and in same size after reopening

@Nikhar_K

In response to the info that you requested, I have provided the info below.

"Are you facing this issue with all the applications or with specific application?"

My reply: This issue is mostly with the windows of specific programs and the dialog boxes.

"You can change the size for opening of the program as Normal Window, Maximized or Minimized."

My reply: I had checked the steps that you provided, but what I wanted was that to be able to set the size of the normal window.

 

Applications not opening at same location and in same size after reopening

Each time when I open the different programs that I have installed in my system, then upon opening the programs, windows 10 doesn't remember the size of the window of those programs also that they were placed at what position on the screen last
time, and this causes me distractions when working. So, how can I make such a setting in windows 10 that, the programs open with the same size as they were set the last time and also open at the same position on the screen? (And this should also include the
different dialog boxes and other similar things
of different programs installed and also of windows itself)

I have tried resizing the windows of some programs, but some programs do not allow resizing their windows. And also, the programs do not open at the same location on the desktop, even after I have moved them
from one position to another on the desktop, then having closed them, and then re-opened them.

And how can I ensure that the dialog boxes of windows and other similar things also open at the same place on the desktop?
