I keep Visual Studio maximized across the entire desktop (dual monitors). As described in another posting, it is tricky to do this in AWM 5.4.

However...
This happens almost every time I lock my computer...
When I get back to my computer and unlock the computer, the windows that have been maximized across both monitors are now maximized on a single monitor.

I.E. -- I have an application set to "100% of desktop" in the x, and "994 pixels" in y. This physically sets the application to 2560 x 994, which exactly fits the desktop space. I then lock the computer (standard windows function), and even seconds later I can unlock the computer and the application is now 1280 x 994, or maximized to one screen instead of the entire desktop.

This is very repeatable, and I have tried on other computers to verify it is not just happening on this one.

Thanks,
Mark.

And please specify following thing:

1. Is the option Use the Welcome (Control Pane -> User Accounts -> Change the way users log on or off) screen enable on your computer?
