I have a laptop that normally sits inside a docking station. Connected to the docking station are two monitors which are used as display devices (the laptop's own monitor is switched off as the graphics card can only drive up to two).

When I remove the laptop from the dock, all open windows move to the one screen that is still connected (the laptop's own display). That is as expected. However, when I reinsert the computer to the docking station, the internal display turns off and the monitors connected to the docking station turn on. But all the windows are still on the "main" display and the second monitor displays only the desktop wallpaper.

Is there any way I can force windows to "remember" their placement on the multimonitor setup so that when I reinsert the computer into the docking station, then windows that were on screen 2 return there?

Built in Windows functionality when it comes to remembering window positions is really primitive, so you'll have to use 3rd party software to achieve this.
