    It seems to me you can do this, but I can't find a reference on how ...

    I want to force an application to launch in a specific window size (916x673) each time. Unfortunately, it is not well-behaved, and does not retain the current window size and position.

    Thanks in advance for any assistance!

    Bah - why couldn't you have elected something easy - like IE? :rolleyes:

    About all I can suggest (which I would guess that you've already tried) is to hold ctrl when closing a correctly sized window.
