Window size and position is not being saved for all published applications.

Description
When a user launches a previously opened published application the window size and position is not being saved. The published application will always open in the top left hand corner of the monitor.
This does not happen with all applications, certain applications like Notepad, will open in the same window size and location as before they were closed.
Resolution
The customer will need to speak to the application vendor to resolve, this is not something that can be resolved by Citrix.
Problem Cause
This was an issue with the Application issue. We were able to prove this by opening the application in an RDP session or on the desktop and we saw the same behaviour.
Some standard applications such as Notepad save their last known window size and position on closure.
Similarly, some applications like CMD.exe will cascade the windows of each process.
The location of the app on startup is controlled by the application running in the server session and then the application position is reflected on the client. The window position is not manipulated by Citrix Virtual Apps.
