PersistentWindows has released version 5.63 as a pre-release and version 5.62, aimed at addressing a common annoyance for users with multi-display setups. Specifically, PersistentWindows tackles a bug that alters the positions and sizes of windows when the number or resolution of connected monitors changes. This tool is particularly useful for those using multiple monitors with varying connection types, as it keeps track of window positions in real-time, including taskbar windows, and automatically restores the original layout corresponding to the last monitor configuration.
Key features of PersistentWindows include:
- Support for remote desktop sessions with various display configurations.
- Ability to capture desktop layouts and save them on a hard drive in liteDB format, allowing for the restoration of closed windows after a reboot.
- Capability to take desktop layout snapshots in memory (up to 36 for each display configuration), which also preserves the window z-order. This can serve as an alternative to virtual desktops on Windows 10.
- Options to pause and resume the auto-restore function.
For those looking for additional guidance, there are also resources available on how to remember window locations with multiple monitors, manage taskbar visibility across multiple displays, and adjust adaptive brightness settings in Windows 10 and 11.
In summary, PersistentWindows is a valuable tool for enhancing productivity and user experience for individuals utilizing multi-monitor setups by eliminating the frustration of manually rearranging windows after adjustments to display settings. With its new features and improvements, users can enjoy a more seamless and efficient workflow, particularly in environments that require frequent changes to display configurations
