Windows: Open new windows on top of last (not offsetting downward)

0

Whenever opening a new window in Windows (explorer or other apps), the new one opens at an offset, cascading all resulting windows downward. It happens with almost everything, whether it's a new folder (via Ctrl-N for example) or opening a new browser window, etc etc.

Is there a way or a registry setting that opens all new windows exactly on top of the last (or always at a given screen pixel location, say 1x,1y)?

Note: I'm aware of (and use) utils like cmdow, ahk, nircmd etc (as noted in comment below). I'm aiming to change Windows's default offsetting behavior across the board. Thanks.

Thank you very much.

I already use cmdnow, ahk, (and also nircmd) etc for positioning specific windows. However, I'm looking for a way to open folders, other app-created windows whose titles or ids are not known, or which may not be active beforehand. Thanks. – spcsLrg – 2019-11-15T23:42:06.497
