Default OT Macrium 7 Problem

I am trying the new Macrium Reflect 7 version. When I select to image
my disk, the subsequent select source drive and image destination
window is smaller and too much to the left on my screen. Subsequently,
I cannot see some options to change which now are off screen to the
left. I can find no way to move or otherwise change the position
and/or size of this subwindow.

Any suggestions?
Thanks

Desktop ? Laptop ? Tablet ?

One or two LCD monitors ?


PC DESKTOP
SINGLE MONITOR

Was the setup previously two monitors and
it's now running with one monitor ?

The dialog is trying to center itself in the screen, and if
it moves to the left, it probably thinks you're running
two screens or something.

I do not have the problem you described. Running Reflect 7 on a laptop and 2 desktops and screen
sizes are the same as for earlier versions. Sorry. Try re-install ?


Macrium does remember the screen coordinates of the Details window
that pops up with you Disk Imaging request or whatever.

A quick check with ProcMon from Sysinternals, suggests this key.
At least, the key *name* is suggestive.

HKCU\Software\Macrium\reflect\DiskImageBackup\Wind owPlacement

There is actually MSDN documentation for WindowPlacement, but
it doesn't easily just scream at you "I'm a 44 byte structure".

Here is a picture from RegEdit. The info near the end of the
data structure is declared as RECT, which could either be
XYWH, but appears instead to be X1 Y1 X2 Y2
as near as I can determine by a quick test. The (X1,Y1) and
(X2,Y2) might be the two corners of the dialog. When I move
the entire dialog to the left on the screen, I can see the
X1 and X2 values "reduce" by the same amount. So if you
wanted to bring it back on screen, that's what you'd play with.
No, you can't just zero them :-) You could try making them
my values and see if that helps.

So what we're attempting to do here, is note that Macrium remembers
the position of that window, and the only way it's going to
come back, is to change that registry value until it does.

On my 7.1 free version I can left click on the top bar and drag it
anywhere on the desktop.
I can also set the cursor on any edge when the little 2 headed arrow
appears and resize it in all directions, larger but not smaller than the
original
If yours won't do this I think I would uninstall it and download a fresh
copy from Macriums home site.
Sorry to take so long to answer but have been unable to post all day,
Keep getting some kind of IP error.

Merry Christmas and good luck.

Rene
