    How to prevent windows from Cascading on open.


    This is a long time problem. Anytime you open a window of the same program, it puts it cascading in front of the previous window.Here is Explorer. I open one window, then another and one more. And it opens each with a cascade.This also happens in edge and any window that is not maximized.Notepad does not and opens every window in the exact same spot exactly over each other.I want the same behavior everywhere. Every window to always open precisely where I put it.I know there is some setting or tweak to force this, but I cannot find it. No this is not the taskbar cascade.

    :)
