Hi,
I’m working on an automation for my PC and it opens more than ten windows of this app. When the automation ends and another app window appears, new windows show up as full-screen on the same monitor. Here are the problems and my goals:
• The app doesn’t offer a window resizing feature. I can only adjust it via general Windows settings.
• With two monitors, I need the program to launch on the second monitor. But after closing and reopening, new windows stay on the first monitor.
• Switching between two desktops (using Windows + Tab, multiple desktops) would be helpful. I’d like the app to open on the secondary desktop, but when I return to the main one, new windows appear again on the primary screen.
• I’m wondering if there’s a way to force this app to appear on the secondary desktop, hide or make the windows invisible so I won’t see them anymore?
Thanks.

Once you open an app and the window it's in, it should remember the last place and size it was opened and open in that way. I just did that with my Outlook program, moved to the second monitor, resized it and closed it. When I opened it again it was in the same positon.
If the program you are using does not do that, there is code in the program to make it do what it does and you should contact support for that program.
