Your system information

  • Steam client version (build number or date): Steam Beta Branch: Steam Beta Update
    Steam Version: 1742591487
    Steam Client Build Date: Fri, Mar 21 14:54 UTC -08:00
    Steam Web Build Date: Fri, Mar 21 14:53 UTC -08:00
    Steam API Version: SteamClient022

  • Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Arch

  • Opted into Steam client beta?: Duh see version

  • Have you checked for system updates?: I'm on Arch what do you think...(Don't like the snark? Stop leaving bug reports open for years at a time with still no fixes.)

  • Steam Logs: [generate by running this command in a terminal tar -zcvf ~/Desktop/steam-logs.tar.gz ~/.steam/steam/logs] steam-logs.tar.gz

  • GPU: Nvidia/Intel/AMD AMD

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

As of a Steam update iirc last week Steam no longer remembers window position.

  • Steam should remember windows position/size.
  • Steam remembers window size and monitor but ignores placement.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Start Steam
  2. Note it no longer remembers window position
  3. Move Steam to desired position
  4. Close/Start Steam
  5. Note Steam again ignores previous window position.

Glad to see yet again looking for already existing reports yielded no results before I posted despite there being one. Thanks for the heads up.
