Apparently latest version of Microsoft Photos has this annoying glitch which doesn't remember window position. If I make my window maximzed and then close the Photos and later if I decided to open photos again, window again is non maxed and I have to click to mazimize again. It's a very annoying glitch. Does anyone knows how to fix this bug?

If you are referring to the window size, If you drag the edges of the window to desired size, when you close and reopen that application window again, the window should be the same size. It is for me.

Maximize it, hold CTRL and click to X to close the app. Then relaunch and it should be maximized

The Windows operating system does not automatically handle saving and restoring window coordinates for applications.

It's up to the programmer to capture the window's position and size before it closes and then restore those settings when the window is reopened. Typically, this is done by saving the window's coordinates to a configuration file, registry, or database, and then reading those values when the application starts.

If an application fails to do that, it's the fault of the programmer.
