Hi there.

A request for the developer of this fine tool :)

Regarding that subject => viewtopic.php?t=7311

I'm now able to lauch 4 (or even 8) batches to sync my 8 internal HDDs to my 2 x 4 HDD external enclosures (with parallel sync, which is a breeze!)

Everything is fine, only very small annoyance is having to rearrange the 4-8 windows (I have 3 screens) while I'm doing something else on the PC.

Would it possible to store the windows size/position for each instance launched? Based on position on closing, or fixed when making the batch file, etc

Great if possible, no big deal if not.

Thanks anyway, this tool, along with "Everything" and a few other ones makes my life so much easier!

Best solution is probably to just run the tasks minimized:
(i.e. check the boxes in the batch job save dialog)

I saw that already :)

Running minimized is fine, even i'd prefer to see the transfers running without having to open/resize/arrange each window manually.

Anyway it's just cosmetic, no big deal.

Thanks again for this wonderful tool :)

For the record: FFS also shows progress in the notification area while it's minimized. The problem is that Windows (by default) hides the icon, so some (many?) users may be unaware that this progress indicator even exists.
