rimboma 36 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 The client always starts in a windowed state instead of maximized, even if it has been closed while maximized. I've tried re-setting windows customization parameters globally using MS FixIt. The operation succeeded but it didn't help with Evernote. The window size and position at startup are constant.

SebR 146 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 AFAIK these parameters are stored in the registry. Did you make something related to it lastly? Link to post
Level 5* gazumped 8,068 Posted July 19, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted July 19, 2015 When you closed Evernote, did you File > Exit or just close the window? It has to be fully shut down to update the registry. Link to post
rimboma 36 Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 AFAIK these parameters are stored in the registry. Did you make something related to it lastly?No, I didn't. Also, I don't use any 'privacy cleaners' nor have similar problems with other applications apart from Steam. When you closed Evernote, did you File > Exit or just close the window? It has to be fully shut down to update the registry.I've verified the issue to be reproducible with the File > Exit method. This method gets the window state stored correctly but it doesn't last through system restart. Link to post
Level 5* gazumped 8,068 Posted July 25, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted July 25, 2015 Has this persisted through updating the app? Might be worth uninstalling and reinstalling (after backing up your databases folder) just to make sure everything is reset to defaults. Link to post
rimboma 36 Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 Yes, this persisted through at least two updates. Link to post
eldrin 26 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 This bug annoys me too. On my laptop, I like to keep Evernote maximized. But after every reboot, Evernote starts in a non-maximized state and I have to manually maximize it again. Come on Evernote! Get your client to remember its window state! This is really basic stuff.

eldrin 26 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Is it even worth trying 5.9.2 to see if this has been fixed? Link to post
Level 5* gazumped 8,068 Posted October 7, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted October 7, 2015 I haven't seen anything about the window state being pinned in 5.9.2 - this has never been a problem for me, possibly because Evernote is always open and I just sleep my computer between uses. I restart occasionally, but that means I then have to open (and usually resize) a lot of browser / email / other windows, so it never struck me that Evernote was unusual. I wouldn't update to the beta just in the hope this is fixed, but keeping bang up to date will give you the fix as soon as it is available. Meantime I'd suggest using the Help Center (link in my sig) to see if there's anything on this issue there, and maybe raising it with support to see what they say... Link to post
eldrin 26 Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 This issue is still present in v5.9.5 Link to post

gyrex 0 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 This issue is super annoying. I'm running the latest version 5.9.6.5454 on Windows 10 and the fact that Evernote opens to a tiny window each time I open it despite setting and closing Evernote with a maximised or enlarged window size. Is there any way to fix this? Link to post
Level 5* CalS 4,797 Posted December 19, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted December 19, 2015 I am not experiencing the same issue. When I close EN, whether maximized or not, using either the X or File - Exit, it opens to the same size as when closed. Also, I have EN on a second monitor, not the default monitor, and EN opens on that second monitor, even after a reboot. This is Windows 10 and EN 5.9.6. This doesn't help much I know, but I don't have the issue and I don't know of any special settings that I am using. Wish I could tell you what is different. Link to post
eldrin 26 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 This bug is still present in 5.9.8. I maximize Evernote, reboot my PC, re-launch Evernote from the tray and find that the window is not maximized anymore. Can someone from Evernote please comment on this? Link to post
