I need to restart my pc several times a day, and I obviously need windows to remember the size of my explorer and programs windows at restart. I threw in the toilet lot of precious time every time for decades due to this problem. Why when i close windows holding down shift makes the system remember the size of windows but on restart these sizes are not remembered anymore? What can I do to get out of this Windows nightmare?

Is there any way to configure fancy zone preset shortcuts to have specific apps automatically open within each zone? That would be the killer app for me to increase productivity. For example say using the priority grid (from left to right) have File Explorer, Microsoft Edge and Discord open by clicking one fancy zone custom preset.

I'm having trouble using FancyZones I have a screen Samsung 49" Curved screen S49A950, 5120x1440 a) The installation is going well b) splitting the screen works fine c) The placement of the different windows is fine but I maximize one of the windows in one of the splits on the screen maximize this window the entire screen and not just the individual partition area. So how do you set so that when you maximize a window it stays within the area of the screen to which you have assigned the window and does not fill the entire screen?

Yes I can use datatype but cannot do the binding context in xaml that will allow me to do the "Source={Binding}"
