DOESN'T work on my machine in Vista x64 (for any app). No effect. Maybe
some Windows option turned off?

Re: TBB 3.5 doesn't seem to remember its window position between sessions.
The size of your window can leak information that reduces your
anonymity, at least if Javascript is enabled (maybe even if it's
disabled?). I suspect that TBB has been intentionally modified to start
with the same window size every time.
It sounds odd that it starts with the title bar off-screen though.
Thanks. Good point. Starting in reduced size isn't the issue - hidden
title bar is. Starting w/ the title bar & buttons hidden on a common
1920x1080 native (21.5 in.) monitor is odd. Nothing unusual about the
monitor & no issue w/ other apps. I'd think many would complain about
TBB 3.5 if it's widespread. This began *ONLY* in TBB 3.5 - 1st launch &
has persisted (erratically). Checked this again in TBB 2.4.17 & no issue
w/ opening size or position.
Further "testing" - TBB 3.5 opening UI alignment is erratic. Sometimes
after maximizing, then closing - it reopens w/ title bar aligned - but
often NOT.
* Title bar being hidden on TBB start happens most often when I maximize
its UI, then minimize, then close. That seems the MOST common scenario,
when title bar's completely hidden on restart. But NOT ONLY time.
Not using any extensions, plugins - except default. Tried it enough to
see, even w/ no other changes between restarts, proper title bar
alignment is erratic.
* If title bar IS aligned, TBB sometimes starts w/ bottom border hidden
well below the Windows task bar (I've only 1 task bar row & "small"
icons). Not a huge issue, as I can then maximize UI - but still odd.
Tested a bunch of apps & Firefox - none have these issues.
Further, I've (always) had checked - "keep *task bar* on top," but NOT
"locked" or "auto hide." No changes on task bar properties in ages.
* With TBB 3.5 started in part-screen mode & with (if) its bottom border
hidden (that actually aligns w/ monitor's bottom IF... I hide task bar),
when I hide, then UNhide task bar, TBB instantly adjusts its bottom
border to just touch the task bar - for that session. But doesn't
always remember ANY positions / alignment on next restart. When I think
I've figured out sequence, it surprises me again.
* Sometimes, if click maximize UI button, then reduce, it'll immediately
change UI position, so all but ~ the LOWER 1/4 of resizing buttons are
hidden off the monitor. Sometimes NOT. But doing that, buttons *may*
display OK.
* Still common for TBB 3.5 to start w/ title bar completely off
monitor. If so, only way I've found to maximize TBB UI is IF... the
bottom border is showing above task bar, drag it UP a bit, then PART of
title bar instantly displays (showing small part of buttons). Then click
maximize button.
(Why would dragging TBB's bottom border make the title bar SUDDENLY jump
/ partially appear? Dunno - never seen it before.)
Whatever my Windows / display "settings" are, haven't changed & work OK
w/ other apps & previous TBB versions.
That's why I asked - so not to file a bug if I'm the only one. Other
than bug / Vista incompatibility, can't imagine why ONLY TBB 3.5 would
do this.
