Is there a way to resize the Multirename dialog box? And also to make it pop up in a certain area of the screen? I'd like the dialog box to be smaller.

Just resize that window as you resize any window in Windows. By dragging the borders of the windows..
And if a windows is closed at one location it is often opened in that location. If possible

I'm able to resize it in that fashion vertically, but not horizontally. It takes up over half the screen. It might be because you have a lot of options packed in there. In some dialog boxes you can click a button named advanced, and it will enlarge the dialog box for more options. So the default dialog box size is kept small. I think that would be a useful addition to the Multirename dialog box.

I took a couple snips as examples:

Not resized.

Resized (only vertically).

It remember its size.
However i resize the window, Height or width, Close the window and then reopen it..  it is the previous size

I don't think making the dialog part collapsible is a good. You need that part almost all the time when go into multirename. It would require more clicks all the time..
The dialog part is not that big unless you on a very very small screen.

You're correct. I just checked my display settings and I had them on 150%. I changed it back to 100% and now the default dialog box size is a good size and I'm able to resize as well.
