FinderFix

FinderFix is here to help! If you've ever had trouble with Finder not remembering your favorite window size and position, you're definitely not alone. It can be super frustrating when you open a new window, and it just won\u2019t stick to how you like it. You might even find yourself going through some tricky workarounds just to get things back to normal.

What Does FinderFix Do?

This handy little app solves that problem by automatically resizing and repositioning every new Finder window as soon as it pops up. Plus, it has a cool added feature: you can cut and paste items in Finder using the ⌘X and ⌘V shortcuts, just like you do with text.

User-Friendly Features

The app hangs out in your menu bar, but if you prefer, you can set up a global shortcut to launch it instead of having it always visible. When you dive into the preferences, you'll see options to set the default size and position for new Finder windows. It would be a nice touch if the app could automatically grab these settings from an active Finder window—sometimes figuring out those numbers can be tricky!

Smooth Operation

Once you've got FinderFix running, every new window will automatically move to your chosen spot and resize itself accordingly. You probably won't even notice the movement! Just keep in mind that disk image windows might look a little funky since they’re designed around certain sizes.

A Little Extra Help

This app isn’t just about sizing; it also lets each new window open in its own tab instead of a separate window! This is great for some users who prefer working this way.

Cuts Like Windows

The best part? You can use the Cut function for Finder items too! With this enabled, pressing ⌘X lets you cut files or folders, and then ⌘V pastes them wherever you want—just like what you'd find on Windows! This gives you another option compared to macOS’s traditional ⌘C / ⌘⌥V.

Your Go-To Solution!

If you're looking for an effective way to tackle those annoying sizing issues with Finder windows, give FinderFix a try! It may have some quirks with disk images, but overall it's a pretty solid tool with extra features that could make your life easier—and guess what? It's totally free!
