This a work-around but it is a successful work-around: when the window gets 'unsnapped' on document open it resizes it to the size the window was before you snapped it. Ergo if you drag the window to the size of half your monitor, then snap it to the side (or just leave it, no need to snap it at this point) when it 'unsnaps' it basically stays in the same position.
Again, a work-around but one that works for me.

This "answer" is really for reference. There are quite a few bugs already written against for the breaking of aerosnap against Notepad++, a search turned up six.

Of these, one in particular seems to address the issue. This issue has a devised fix which is slated for next release as of today, June 6th, 2013.
