When I bring up Mathematica, I’d like the windows (including help) to open just as they were when I closed Mathematica last. That way I don’t have to resize/move windows every time I bring up the tool.
I can’t figure out how to set the preferences to do this… is it possible?
thanks,

Hi, You may find the answer at http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/questions/1641/changing-default-window-appearance/1642#1642 . Thank you.
Thanks Isaac!
That gets me most of the way there.

This functionality is part of the suite of tools I wrote some while ago (which I still use every day), “A WorkLife Framework” (http://scientificarts.com/worklife/).
But I will see in the next couple of days if I can find time to create a funciton that does specifically what you are asking for and which you can add to a palette.
By the way, these days you can have WorkLife under a shareware approach -- I give a license and you can contribute what you wish via PayPal if you find it useful and choose to continue to use it.
Wait… I created something like this a while ago…
It is located here as a palette that allows you to save several window states for reopening at a future time…

The only caveat is that the palette must exist in a location on your drive that has been designated as a trusted directory. If you install the palette then it will be trusted automatically.
