  The window size that I set for the Quick Paste window will not remain constant. Under options, I have the box checked in the section for History Search and Quick Paste that says "Remember the window position". Maybe that is the way it works because it doesn't mention size. In my case, I get a window that is quite large and goes off the side of the screen.
  
  So when using the hotkey to open the Clipboard History Quick Paste, it opens to that very large window size and much of it is off the side of the screen.
  
  Is there a way to make the position and size remembered?
  
  Thank You

  If you move and/or resize the "Quick Paste" window, does its position remembered when you reopen it (even after restarting QCE)? The option "Remember the window position" makes QCE reopen the "Quick Paste " window at the position and size it was the last time it was closed.

  The position is saved but the width and height of the window increase every time I open it. I made the Quick Paste window quite small and put it in the upper, left area of my screen. Each time I use ctrl+p to open it, it gets a little larger in the x and y directions. It continues to do so until the size of the window is so large, it goes off the screen.
  
  The same iterative process occurs if I open the Clipboard History Quick Paste using ctrl+[. The window's origin is set, but the x and y get larger each time I open the window until it is off the screen.

  Oh... Thanks for the details. Can approximate the number of pixel it increase each time you open this window? I'll investigate this.

  This could be related to screen scaling. Is screen scaling enabled on your system?

  After further investigation, no this is not related to screen scaling.
  
  QCE is saving the dimension of the window to the ini file and retrieves it when you open the window. During development, I found that this value was increased by 16 px (width) and 39 px (height) each time the window is restored. I adjusted the dimension to keep the same size... at least on my system. But it seems that this adjustment value is different on your system.
  
  Could you send me a screen capture of your Quick Paste window. Maybe the size of the title bar or something like this could explain the difference.
  
  What is strange is that I do not have any adjustment to do when launching the main QCE window. And I use the same code to save and restore the dimension for both windows.

  OK... Cause of the issue found. Solution on its way for the next release.
  
  Thanks for reporting the issue. We need users with different configurations to report issues like you. Alone with my team of 1 tester, I cannot cover all specific configurations.

  I updated to your fixed version and verified it by looking under About, but mine still does the same as before. What other information can I send that would help you?
  
  Thank you

  Could you send me two screen captures of the Quick Paste window: one before and one after the size change? You can send it by email if you prefer (support@quickaccesspopup.com).

  I've emailed you the images. Hope they help.

  Thank you Robert. We will continue by email and I'll follow up here when we have a solution.

  The "History Search / Quick Paste" window "growing size" issue (small increase on most systems, more visible on some other systems) has been mitigated in release v2.2.3.1:
  https://forum.quickaccesspopup.com/showt...36#pid7636
  
  The issue now occurs only when you launch QCE, not every time you open the "History Search / Quick Paste" window. This makes the issue much less critical. The cause of the window size increase is still under investigation.

  This was fixed (with possible minor exceptions) in v2.2.3.2. See release notes:
