WindowsWhere

We've all lost our keys, but computer windows? That's something the operating system is supposed to remember. Windows 7 has always had that kind of memory problem with occasional program windows, but this tiny freeware utility should fix that. The program forces Windows 7 to recall where you last opened a window, preventing your apps from opening partially under the taskbar or unmaximized when you really want them opening full-screen.

The program sports a simple two-pane interface for keeping track of your open windows and logging their movements, and it's all text-based in small fonts. It also feels like it adds a quarter-second or half-second to program windows opening. That being said, if Windows 7's forgetfulness is annoying you to no end, WindowsWhere will end it.
