Hello, I'm running Calibre on a Suface Go 2, Windows 11 (current version 22H2). i've been using Calibre 6.10 with no problems until yesterday when the Viewer suddenly stopped remembering viewer window size and position. The Viewer > Preferences > Miscellaneous > Remember last used window size and position checkbox is checked, but the viewer window only opens to maximum size. If I manually resize the viewer window for a book, next time I open the book it will again be maximum size, filling my whole screen (but not in full screen mode). I upgraded to Calibre 6.11 but it made no difference. i've rebooted, cold booted, and unchecked and rechecked the 'Remember last used...' checkbox. I also experimented with viewer page layout settings but that didn't affect window size, just text display, as it should. The viewer is opening at maximum size for all books I've tried, all formats, all libraries, and for books not yet in a library, no matter how I open or close the viewer. It's slowing down my efforts to check and document book formatting issues. Any suggestions for how to fix this would be greatly appreciated!
