    I think a petition would really ruin a few hundreds of microsoft's sales at least and if it's successful enough it might even counteract their marketing at this point in time.
    So we really need to act now or stfu forever!
    Start the petition. I once made Samsung fix an HDTV problem they were ignoring by starting a petition.

    There is indeed power in numbers. Start the petition, I'll be the first to sign. I'll start one myself within a few days if you haven't.

    However, I was also writing Samsung registered letters on a weekly basis, which I think may have carried more weight than the online petition.

    I have never done a petition before and even though I could do it, from what I see there, you know how to make one look professional and serious.
    If you say you can make one then how about you make it and I will give you my full support. I will also help spread it on all communities.

    I notice this topic is marked as resolved? How is that so?

    The Windows Manger software is not ideal ie web pages that use popup preset sizes in JavaScript do not work unless you add every one to the software conf. which is hardly a practical solution as there are so many these days.

    Hello Vault,

    It's marked resolved because this is not an option in Windows 7 by default to have window positions and sizes remembered for individual windows instead of all windows.

    issue is not resolved. the question was how to make Windows 7 remember size and position. we know it's not part of Windows 7 default what we want to know how to get it back because leaving it out was one of the stupidest things they could have done.especially for those of us who run multiple monitors.now there's got to be some type of registry entry we could use to bring this back.or should I just take us back to the store tell them I want a refund because Windows 7 is defective and to go back to Vista

    Unless a 3rd party program comes out that can add this feature, it will not be available in Windows 7. Hopefully one may come out after Windows 7 has been out for a bit. Otherwise, it's time for you to go back to Vista then.

    Sadly MS ignored all the beta testers complaints in removing this feature. I have absolutely no understanding why MS pretends in public to listen but in actuality, they arrogantly ignore.

    Windows Explorer as a whole is a disaster for actually getting work done.

    is this going to be the Vista fiasco all over again I remembered Dell and other companies going back to XP because nobody want to buy a computer with Vista on it.
    P.S and like Brink said if you don't like it you can go back to Vista
