[qubes-users] placement of windows after re-logging in

2022-09-05 Thread Boryeu Mao
When logging back in, the windows in the workspace are re-opened - is it 
possible to have them positioned just as they were before the last logging 
out?  I have R.4.1.1 with xfce.  Thanks in advance.

I don't really know anything about custom disk layouts, but have you tried 
restoring by following these instructions?

https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-back-up-restore-and-migrate/#restoring-from-a-backup

If so, where exactly did you encounter a problem (i.e., which step)?
