Area(s) with issue?

PowerRename

Steps to reproduce

Open PowerRename GUI window using any available method (e.g., from right-click context menu of folder from Windows Explorer).

✔️ Expected Behavior

Initial window size on opening should be in Restored mode with a size matching the desktop size of the size of the screen on which the GUI window displays. On resizing the restored window and closing it, upon re-launch the GUI window should open to the same position and size as when it was closed (except where the desktop conditions have changed, whereupon it should open to full desktop size per the above paragraph.

❌ Actual Behavior

On my PC, with initial open of PowerRename window it always opens to a restored size that is slightly larger than the display screen, with minimize, maximize, close controls and caption menu only just visible. Maximizing the window results in normal full screen occupation (it shrinks the window a bit to fit). Resizing the restored window works okay but is not remembered for next opening.
