akumaki

Saves/restores windows's location after monitor turns off/on.

In some cases using DisplayPort to connect Monitors, windows' location are changed unintentionally when monitor turns off/on.

As a workaround for the problem, this application saves windows's location when monitor turns off, and restores windows's location when monitor turns on.

Installation

1. Download a binary from the release page: https://github.com/knhr/akumaki/releases
2. Unzip the file

Usage

How to start the application

Just execute akumaki.exe.

The application stays in your TaskTray.

We recommend that you create a shortcut of akumaki.exe to your StartUp folder.

How to quit the application

Right-click the application icon in TaskTray, and click the Exit menu.

Advanced Settings

Windows' location cannot be moved immediately after monitor turns on. So, this application restores windows' location a few second after monitor turns on.

How long needs to wait for depends on hard-wares. Default wait-time is 4000msec. If restoring windows' location fails, try changing the wait-time as follows.

1. Open akumaki.exe.config file.
2. Change the value of 'WaitTimeAfterMonitorOn'.
   (Unit of the value is millisecond. Value between 3500msec -- 5000msec is recommended.)
