Make sure you do not have Global Settings >> General Settings >> GUI >> Use Alternate Window Placement Method enabled. Although that should not cause any inconsistency. And warning. If you use that option you are going to notice very wacky behavior, with windows appearing and disappearing when the window placement is determined. Only use it with great caution and it may not make any difference at all. These Windows API functions are consistently used among all of those windows: SetWindowPlacement GetWindowPlacement The difference is that the main Sierra Chart window and the Trade Activity Log windows still remain as MFC Windows. We cannot think of any reason why that matters at all. There must be something going on in the background which we do not know about or have any control over. We will not be spending any time on this at all. Under no circumstances. Eventually those windows will be changed. Anyway at this point we cannot help with the issue beyond what we have said here. It is not going to help to ask us about this further. One more thing, it does not help to do a fresh install of Sierra Chart. That is a complete waste of time. This issue has nothing to do with that at all. For the record, Microsoft you are a criminal organization at this point and you can go to hell. ---- Update: This issue also occurs on Windows 7. Setting this to Yes does resolve the issue: Use Alternate Window Placement Method However, you have to accept the consequences of what it does.
