Change window settings to hide them in Windows 10.
It seems you might not need to update Windows anymore and could use a third-party tool to reinstall it later, as it works well for you.
You're wondering if you'll get notifications when you edit your old post. You discovered a method to manually move windows (using Aero Snap) without shifting the Steam window position, which should save time compared to manually arranging them. That sounds helpful since you often copy and drag files in Windows 10—it's usually a hassle.
Click the programs icon in the taskbar, then choose cascade all windows or rearrange them side by side or stack them without interfering with other applications.
Absolutely, this has been an issue for me too. It would affect my Steam/skin window and I need it to stay fixed in place. Otherwise it would be much simpler. My "Steam client" is positioned so that other apps like Chrome or Precision don’t interfere, which works well. If I could lock its position, that would be ideal. Otherwise, the aero snap seems like a solid alternative.
Are you using the shift key while clicking the program icon instead of the task bar? This opens a different menu, but it shouldn't interfere with other programs. You mentioned trying again and only getting explorer windows. Edit: It seems enabling taskbar buttons is necessary for this to function. The Aero snap workaround is also fine.
Feeling quite unengaged, I’m thinking about building a simple tool that sets up a global hotkey to move active windows across the screen. It could also include a toggle to lock windows and remember their positions for those that don’t save automatically. Would such a feature appeal to many users?
I believe it would be really great (both aspects)! It seems like some people are frustrated by the unpredictable nature of certain windows, so keeping them in place until you restart or even indefinitely might help. Another observation is that playing games with unusual resolutions or using NVIDIA DSR can affect sizes and positions, though I think that’s likely a driver issue that can’t be resolved this way.
Forever seems achievable now. It might just depend on how the resolution updates, allowing positions for all windows to be adjusted accordingly. Another idea I had was about 'window stacks'—grouping windows together so shifting one changes the others automatically while keeping their relative positions.
