POX added AutoSizer as alternative to WindowResizer- TBayAreaPat reviewed AutoSizer
I didn't find this program particularly intuitive or well-adapted to its purpose. However, I admit that I'm not ready to spend much time learning to use this type program at this time.

A great little app! I use DesktopCoral for a Rainmeter theme, I needed my windows maximized for my games in windowed mode ... and here is the pearl! Without this application my office customization would not be complete to 85%! Exactly what I needed, I would add to AlternativeTo.net if there was not!
You will probably use it one day (Manage position and size of any window, either by using the class code of fennêtre, its exact name or part of its name, you can also maximize reduce your windows, always keep above others, etc. ... in the end all that may have to do with a shortcut *.ink and it is impossible to do with a *.exe software!)
A very simple and very great little App !

I have absolutely loved using AutoSizer over the years. It has made many annoyances, well, less annoying. And now I am finding that for whatever reason, AutoSizer itself is becoming annoying. It just doesn't seem to be able to handle simple instructions anymore. I would take a wild guess that perhaps 25% of the things I would go to AutoSizer to remedy, can no longer solve issues. And the ones that work don't seem to have any correlation with each other that I can see... some windows/frames simply work and others just don't. It will handle very simple instructions like maximizing windows that you always want maximized, but if you wish to have a window open in the same location at the same dimensions every time, it's a crapshoot. I have ONE frame that will open to exact specifications that I have asked AutoSizer to follow beautifully, and all the rest... just open. No error, no message (the log isn't helpful anymore either).
It simply isn't reliable at all anymore, and I am now realizing it is silly to be using something that can only accomplish a quarter of the things I need done, when I'm sure there is a product that will do this all of the time. If anyone has an "alternative to" AutoSizer that you would recommend, I would very much appreciate pointing me in the right direction. The ones that I see on this website that may be good candidates might be Actual Window Manager, DeskSoft WindowManager and there are a number of apps that do so many different things, I find it confusing to find something that AutoSizer specifically did so well for some time.
Thanks for any assistance... much appreciated! :)
