Description

Ver 1.75.7008.17907 on Windows 10.

Hi.. I have used mRemoteNG for years.. and just recently updated. Now I have this strange problem. When I open it up, and open an RDP in my connections tab, it always opens the General tab next to it, inside that little area. I always have to then move the General tab onto the larger section of my screen. I've tried saving everything (don't see a "save panel layout" option) and next time I close and re-open mRemoteNG it's the same story.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. First reproduce the layout behavior on Windows 10 with version 1.75.7008.17907 by opening an RDP connection, then inspect how the General tab and panel layout are restored across restarts. Done means the General tab opens in the larger section and that arrangement persists after reopening mRemoteNG.
