Windows 11 Suddenly Started to Resize and Move my Open Windows Position
How to fix that? Even IDM that I always put in the right corner would be moved on the left side of the screen, never had that problem? It seems to appeared after upgrading to 24H2. It usually happens...
This issue is likely related to how Windows 11 handles multi-monitor setups or power-saving features after the upgrade to 24H2. Here are some potential fixes:
- Disable "Snap Windows":
- Go to Settings > System > Multitasking.
- Turn off "Snap windows" to stop Windows from automatically repositioning your open windows.
- Check Display Settings:
- Go to Settings > System > Display.
- Ensure your display settings, such as resolution and scaling, are correct for your monitor.
- If you're using multiple monitors, set one as the primary display to prevent windows from moving unexpectedly.
- Disable "Snap Windows":
So I've tried everything suggested here and none of them worked.
I tried a few other things and finally found something that fixed the issue.
Enable "Remember window locations":
- Go to Settings > System > Display > Multiple Displays
- Tick the "Remember window locations based on monitor connection.
I usually prefer not to tick this because I use multiple displays sometimes, and don't want my browsers/folders switching locations every time I reconnect the other monitors.
But it seems to fix this particular issue, so I have to live with another slightly less annoying issue.
