[Bug]: Window (re)positioning issues

[logmod]

Which OS?

Win10 Pro

Which release?

22H2

Describe the bug

I am using v24.12.24, I have only one virtual display in FullHD 60Hz extended from the main display. My main and only physical monitor has a resolution of 3840x1600 with 144Hz, I connect two display cables to it from the same computer, because sometimes I have to use the hardware PiP mode of my monitor. The bug I am describing happens when I do not use the PiP mode.

My issue is that after my computer wakes up from powersave, existing open windows are resized and moved to the left top corner of my display in an area that looks like it is an 800x600 portion of my screen. Also new windows are sometimes (not always) created on the virtual display with a strange (small) size although the virtual display is not set as primary display. I can move them back to the main screen with Win+R/L and I can of course resize the other Windows, but this is quite annoying.

Steps to reproduce

I do not see a clear pattern on how to repoduce, it happens based on triggers I do not understand.

Expected behavior

Existing Windows stay in position and size after a wakeup. New windows are created on the primary display.

You can use "obs studio" a free and open source program and quite popular. It can help you bring that window in the virtual display to the main display very easily. You add a "Display Capture" component in the "Sources" and set it's capturing window to be the Virtual Monitor. Now, in the screen preview (inside the obs itself) you can see what's being rendered on the virtual display and when you move your mouse away from the actual physical screen to the direction of the virtual monitor ( you can set the layout in the display settings of the windows) your mouse will too appear inside that screen preview , from there you can drag your window to the actual screen as you would normally do.
