Download the Full Version of WindowManager with Activation

WindowManager has been updated to the latest version: DeskSoft WindowManager 10.22.1

For example, open Firefox, resize its window, and place it anywhere on your desktop, then close the browser. When you restart it later, it will remember the window's position and size. I chose Firefox just to highlight that some applications remember their window positions while others do not. This is where WindowManager comes in. This tool ensures that application windows open exactly where you want them.

WindowManager is compatible with Windows 10, Windows 8, 8.1, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows Home Server, and Windows Server 2003, 2008, and 2012. No matter which version of Windows you have on your computer, the simple setup wizard will help you install WindowManager quickly and easily.

WindowManager helps you streamline your workflow by remembering and restoring the position and size of programs and windows. Many programs do not remember their position and size between sessions, and even Windows Explorer does not always restore windows to their last position. This is where WindowManager steps in, ensuring that windows are placed exactly where you want them every time you open them. WindowManager allows you to lock the position and size of any window, so it always opens in the same place regardless of where you move it. Window handling is fully customizable, and you can set specific rules for your favorite or most-used windows.

If you are one of the many people who work in front of a computer daily, you likely have a preferred window layout for the applications you use frequently. Although windows usually open in the position they were last closed, Windows can sometimes mess with how you organize and place applications on your desktop. This is where WindowManager comes in, providing a convenient way to create different profiles to save and restore the position and size of your programs.

While things should be relatively straightforward with WindowManager, it may take some time to get used to the application. Fortunately, the user manual opens upon first launch, allowing you to take a look at detailed usage instructions.

The main interface lets you manage profiles and rules. A list of all open windows is displayed, along with any secondary windows or dialog boxes, if present. The rules feature various matching filters, such as window title and class, executable program, window size, and more.

WindowManager can be configured to remember the last position and size of a specified window, but you can also set new coordinates and values for the desktop's width and height. In other words, it is possible to change the state of the specified window and force WindowManager to restore it in the future, all by pressing a hotkey. You can also manipulate the order of windows.

It's worth noting that advanced users can run custom commands on open windows, including closing, minimizing, maximizing, and other similar actions. The built-in command editor in WindowManager comes with predefined basic commands that you can insert into your command set with a single click. Detailed instructions and information about all commands are available in the user manual, so feel free to take a look to make the most of this feature.

Rearranging and resizing windows repeatedly to recreate a pleasant workspace can be tedious and frustrating. The purpose of WindowManager is to enhance your workflow by remembering the position and size of windows on your desktop. In other words, it provides a productivity tool to help you save and restore your workspace when needed without wasting time moving and resizing windows again.

WindowManager helps retrieve and restore the position and size of programs and windows. Even Windows Explorer does not always return windows to their last state. This is where WindowManager ensures that windows are placed exactly where you want them. It can also help you lock the position and size of any window, so it always opens in the same place regardless of where you move it. Window handling is fully customizable, and you can set specific rules for your favorite or most-used windows.

The WindowManager interface is not particularly attractive. It's just a collection of text, buttons, and menus that a novice computer user might find somewhat confusing. The help file is not very useful either, as it contains large chunks of text that a beginner may not feel compelled to read.

Explaining how WindowManager works is relatively simple: set up the rules, and they will be applied, forcing application windows to open in a certain way. If the application does not remember its last position and size, WindowManager will apply the rules that compel it to remember these things.

WindowManager is not free; it is only free to try. You have a 30-day trial period to evaluate it and decide if it's worth paying $10 for a license. As someone who tests dozens of software applications each week, I must say that only a handful do not remember window positions and sizes. Most applications remember their position and do not require enforcement with a tool like WindowManager.

If you find it annoying when an application does not remember its position and size, it is highly recommended to try WindowManager.

Pros
WindowManager is compatible with any version of Windows you can think of. It will apply the rules and force windows to open in a certain way.

Cons
The interface may be challenging for beginners. The help file is text-only. WindowManager is free to use for 30 days.
