Area(s) with issue?

General

Steps to reproduce

We have Power Toys installed on every computer because of the 4k monitors; each user has their own FancyZones defined for effective screen splitting.

please fix these errors

✔️ Expected Behavior

  1. Run in tray, without main-window
  2. EFFECTIVE SAVING OF SETTINGS
  3. roaming settings between machines in a windows domain for the same user

❌ Actual Behavior

The problem is that when the program starts - run from the script of the organization I'm logging in to - the 1st program always launches a large window in the middle of the screen, instead of just in the tray

  1. fancy zones sometimes enabled and sometimes not, it's random I guess, but very frustrating because after logging in I expect a fully working program with the settings I left
  2. defined zones do not move with user profiles
