Hi,

I have set Instances To Run on Startup to 3. Upon start up, the 2nd instance will not launch. The 3rd instance will launch. And the 3rd instance doesn't quite reload with the same window size that I had it.

This issue came up after I tried to load a 3rd instance. Before my 1st and 2nd instance was working fine. When I try to load a 3rd instance, this started happening.

What should I do?

Refer to that setting here to know exactly how to use it:
General Settings Window: Instances to Run on Startup (Global Settings >> General Settings >> General >> New Instances)

And the 3rd instance doesn't quite reload with the same window size that I had it.

Those instructions were helpful.

Regarding the window position, I found a way to do get it to remember the position/size on my 3 monitor setup. Windows 10 was not remembering the position/size if I drag the window to the right edge of my monitor to have the window automatically fill up the right half of a monitor. If I just manually move and manually adjust the position and size, windows 10 will remember my size and position.
