    System: MBP non-retina display, OSX Mavericks 10.9.2, Parallels 9, Win7 Guest OS.

    I work in windowed mode. When I minimize then restore the guest OS, the restored window changes its size and position. Usually it is restored to a very small window in the upper left corner of the screen which resizes all the open windows in the guest OS. Other times the restore is not a drastic change but still not the original size or position.

    I try to use F6 to switch out of the guest OS, which works, but if I accidentally use the minimize button as I am used to doing with other mac programs, the problem occurs.

    Parallels 6 did not have this problem but all versions thereafter did.

    Anyway to get the minimize and restore button to function properly? That is, restore the window to its size and position prior to the minimize?
