When I use "Restore Windows Positions From Last Save" sometimes it doesn't work for some windows. It happens to me specially with Autodesk 3ds Max and Chrome, but the weird thing is that it happens often, but not consistently always.

And again, all these 3ds Max and VRay windows are totally ignored by the command:

Could you do the following for the main window, and for one of those child windows, and send over both files?
Sure, there they go.

Thanks for sending that over, it looks like it's using completely separate handles for each window so it should be catching them. Do you have a trigger to save the positions on idle? If so can you send a screenshot of the "Edit" window from that trigger?
Can you try setting the thread wait on line 9 longer and see if that helps? Try setting it to 5000ms

Nah, it does the same. It restores the position of the other apps windows, but totally ignores the 3ds Max windows (and sometimes Total Commander's too).
Also, it does the same with Autodesk Maya (Window inspector info and DF log attached).

If you try using the hotkey a few times, do subsequent presses work, or do they all fail?

They all fail.
The weird thing is that this issue is not 100% consistent. It happens a lot, but not every single time. Sometimes it works.
Yeah strange, it must be the save portion that's failing. If you create a new script that runs the save function but doesn't activate the screensaver, does it work if you run a save & restore?

Doesn't seem like it. I'm not even using a script now, but just the Functions:
and it still doesn't work many times.
Just tried to restore the positions after being away from the computer for many hours and Maya window is being left at the wrong monitor.
