I don't remember when it started, but, the size and position of the Boinc Manager window always reverts back to a really small window every time I have to reboot my PC (Mac version seems to retain size and position information).

Could you check into this on the next version? I just downloaded the latest one (5.10.45).

Thanks!!!!

This is a known problem and no good way to fix it has been found. If you use the file-exit command instead of the "x" there is a better chance that the position will be remembered.

If I press Control while maximising the mini-window first time after reboot, I find it usually remembers to reopen full size. I can then use X to close it with a single click.
