hello @Jeffreyjelly thanks for ther report!
i'm trying to reproduce but I'm sure I'm doing something wrong

can you record a video/gif on how do you get it to happen? I'd like to make sure I'm not confusing any steps.

This same problem is happening with a left aligned taskbar in windows.

(two monitor setup)
Minimize on the non-main display and it reopens on the main monitor display (seems to have forgotten location) while being hidden behind the taskbar

Our supported server versions include v5.19 and later versions. Would you be open to upgrading to see if it helps with the issue? Also, are you currently on desktop app v4.4.1?

[Jeffreyjelly]

I'm on 4.4.0 for the desktop app, I'll try and see if I can push for some updates
