Each time I start the app, I have to move the horizonal window bar to the right to see the drop down. It seems to not be saving the window position on exit.

It's probably the same issue as described here:

> After starting mp3tag the tag panel has a wrong width and i can not see the drop-down buttons. They appear only after changing the width with the slider
Unfortunately, I still have no idea — but would very much like to fix this too!

I run the app on a Win10 PC and also in a VM on a Mac. Only one has the issue (Win10 PC), so it is system specific.

This should now be fixed with [Mp3tag v3.06b](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/455).

I still see the issue after installing v3.06b.

OK, thanks for letting me know. I was hoping for something different.
Can you perform the tests I've asked you a few days ago via PM?

Was that to use a different version and send you the log file? I did that.

Did you sent that by email? I haven't received it then.
The log file you've uploaded here is from v3.06b which doesn't contain the special logging code from v3.06 **a1**. You should still have a link to that version in your [personal messages](https://community.mp3tag.de/u/Psychoticsixx/messages) here on the forums.

I've compiled a test build with some additional logging. Can you prepare the Mp3tag window that it shows the issue, close Mp3tag and install this test version from
[https://download.mp3tag.de/support/C25106B4-FD26-4ED9-B407-1501D5990279-3621/mp3tagv306b1setup.exe](https://download.mp3tag.de/support/C25106B4-FD26-4ED9-B407-1501D5990279-3621/mp3tagv306b1setup.exe)
Then open Mp3tag (it should show v3.06b1 in the title), don't resize anything and then close right away.
Then I'd need the `Mp3tagError.log` from `%APPDATA%\Mp3tag` (or the program folder, if you're using a portable version).
Thank you!

Slowly getting there 😃 Can you try this version:

That version worked. Here is the log
