Have more than one display active, open VHA and place it on display (2), disable display (2), application gets lost and is not retrievable at all unless you enable display (2) in same position and placement.

What should happen? Application should move to display (1) like all other windows do.

I cannot even get the VHA window back at all using known methods (https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows/bring-misplaced-off-screen-windows-back-to-your-desktop-keyboard-trick/) such as using Windows 10 Cascading Windows option, moving windows or changing desktop resolutions (which forces windows onto working display).

Oh no! This is not good at all ⚠️
Initially I was handling the window position myself, but I accepted a PR that uses electron-window-state #457
Perhaps there's a check I need again to make sure the window is visible 😓
Thank you for reporting the bug 🙌

I have not investigated, but perhaps this is related: mawie81/electron-window-state#27
