Portableapps window location

Hi there
For almost all of the many years since I discovered and started using using Portableapps + countless installations, the main window has always been in the right corner, down on the screen, just above the clock, without ever having to do anything after installing.
For the last couple of months, probably after one of the updates, after the window suddenly started appearing on the right side but in the middle, instead of in the corner, down , I have looked for ways to change this, but to no avail. It always fails to "remember" the right corner, down however much I pull it down, which I always do. May be I have looked in the wrong places, but I find no settings to change this.
If there is a solution to this, could someone kindly point me to it and if not, could the developers please avail this option, so it defaults there like it always has in the over 10 years I have known this indispensable program I have used it on countless PCs?
Thank you in advance

Close Platform Save

The platform will only save its position on exit. My guess is you were shutting your PC down with the platform running which is why it wasn't saving the position.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
