Hello, no problem. I finally made time to look into the help section but I'm not sure if window rules can do what I'm looking for. I see that it can control what programs display in each VM, but can it control what position a program should be occupy in the desktop? For example, I want program A set in the left side of the screen and program B in the right side of the screen, and if they ever get mixed up I want a hotkey to put them back into position. I don't see any options for his kind of thing...

Hi Johan can you please explain how to make VirtuaWin persist my window layout? Thank you for your time.

Actually that's how I use my setup right now, sorry for not clarifying. Both monitors switch from VM1 to VM2 and back at the same time. But can you please explain how to make VirtuaWin persist my window layout? I was very confused how to operate it at all. For simplicity's sake we can just deal with one VM right now. (And thank you for taking the time to respond so far!)

Yes sir. Right now I'm using the Virtual Desktop function that's native to Windows 10, but with VirtuaWin I'd want to use two virtual machines. Each VM would use my two screens in the way most people use two screens, as an extended desktop (as opposed to duplicated, or different VM's per screen). Each VM has a different list of programs open, and in different layouts/positions on the two screens. For example VM1 is my work environment: on screen 1 I have two Chrome windows open and on screen 2 there...

I have two screens and I use two VM's (one for work and one for everyday stuff). In each VM I have several different windows positioned to do different things. Sometimes when one screen turns off, all the windows get jumbled up and repositioned somewhere else. I want to save where certain windows are positioned on each screen, in each VM. And when these windows are ever moved, I want a hotkey to reposition them to their saved positions. Ideally all windows at once, but I can live with one window...
