Description of the new feature / enhancement

I think this may have been implemented as a new setting in FancyZones or added as a new utility.

Scenario when this would be used?

I restore some windows manually every time after I start the system. If we could automate these operations, it will be very helpful.
For example, I have four windows opened on my second monitor.

If I could set up somehow and these windows will restore as I configured it would be great.
What do you think?

What comes to my mind could be something like

  1. pinning programs/executables/running processes to defined areas in FancyZones
  2. to auto save the current app positions in case the PC goes to power save and forgets the assigned positions.
