Hello,
On Windows 10, using latest build 10.1.2.
I have a 57" Samsung split into 6 monitors. The monitor is set to sleep after 10mins of activity. I use all 6 monitors as fullscreen for apps via snapping.
When the machine wakes from sleep, all fullscreen windows are no longer full screened and are moved out. They have to be repositionned everytime. Repositionning them is also tedius (move to another screen since it won't trigger the current one, then back to the original monitor).
Is there any solution to this bug?
Thanks
Phil

So there is no way to have the windows back to "fully maximized" (not fullscreen, my mistake) when it wakes from sleep?
Thanks
Oh yep, it should move them back to a maximized state if they were maximized before

I can confirm not all windows are properly going back to maximised when resuming. Delay is set to 5 seconds and is more than enough. Do you need any specific information to help debug?
THanks
The windows are moving to the correct location, they just aren't being maximized?

Not sure if the location is correct (I will try to track it next time), but they are not maximised and the window "order" is not respected. The window that was at the front before sleeping is no longer in the front when the software has moved back all the windows to position
It doesn't save the Z order, so it won't revert back to the same Window order.
Is it the same apps each time that aren't getting maximized? If so, which ones?

Hello,
All windows are not getting maximized.
Could you send me a screenshot of the trigger you created?
Thanks for sending that over. What is your sleep timer set to in Windows?

screen turns off after 15 minutes, PC never sleeps or hibernates
Your system needs to lock on sleep or screensaver for this to work, otherwise the unlock trigger won't fire. You could just attach a hotkey to the "Load Window Positions" function instead and run it manually after you wake it

Hello,
Machine locks and requires windows password. I would say the script is working since you can see the windows being reorganized after the 5 second delay.

Ecuse the delay, will send that log next time it happens.
One thing that was not stated (and possibly the cause now that I think of it): I use a single taskbar for all screens on screen 1.3 (forced via the registry key in your documentation, else it defaults to 1.2). Everytime the screen wakes, I get the taskbar on the whole screen, then it is moved to screen 1.3. Maybe this could play a role?
