Well, not really too much to talk about, generally I do not use or even like this kind of applications. I wanted to give it a chance some time ago and used a feature of snapping the windows to the screen border when closed enough to it. Not sure if this was the cause. Now I completely disabled the Desktop Manager.

I got it - it was the NVIDIA Desktop Manager - so apparently a similar problem as with ATI Hydravision - thanks for the tips!

Thanks for the answers, however none of them helped to solve the issue. I do not have ATI Hydravision installed I do use dual monitor setup I am using the machine with administrator rights, so the registry access should not be the problem (after deleting the key it was recreated) But, when experimenting a bit with the application, I can describe the symptom hopefully better: This issue occurs only when I close the application maximized. Next start shows the app window maximized with history and layer windows in the center Restoring the app puts them properly to the side Maximizing again - the windows stay on the side

For some time I have an annoying problem that after starting Paint.NET the Layers and History windows are centered within the main window. When I select the Reset Window Locations command they are repositioned but the locations are not remembered. I failed to find this issue in the forum, so I'm trying to raise it here. I am using the currently latest version 3.5.6, on Win XP Pro SP3.
