Sizing internet windows
Once I reduce the size of an internet window, each time I go to it again it
comes up with the reduced size. Maximizing it doesn't work. How can I make it default once again to a full size page? Thanks. |

You can't. There's no fix to this.

Close the window with X and next time it should open the same way. If not somethings wrong. |

Windows remembers the size of the last Normal IE window closed.
Open such a link. Don't use the maximize button. Stretch the edges/corners so that the window fills the screen. Close all other IE windows. Close the stretched window. If that doesn't do it try the REG file he http://windowsxp.mvps.org/IEFAQ.htm#IEMax -- Frank Saunders, MS-MVP, IE/OE Please respond in Newsgroup.

Try maximizing manually by making the window fit the screen by dragging it
to the edges that does the trick "JudyO" wrote in message ... Once I reduce the size of an internet window, each time I go to it again it comes up with the reduced size. Maximizing it doesn't work. How can I make it default once again to a full size page? Thanks. |

Once I reduce the size of an internet window, each time I go to it again it comes up with the reduced size. Maximizing it doesn't work. How can I make it default once again to a full size page? Thanks. franksaunders and Alan make an important distinction: it’s important to manually resize the IE window by dragging. I had a similar problem recently, and just clicking on Maximize did not solve it, whereas manual resizing did. On other occasions, although not this recent one, I have used another trick I picked up on another forum: closing the IE window while pressing CTRL. This trick did not work with the recent problem, perhaps because the IE window was being opening from a hyperlink in an email message. -- Posted using the http://www.windowsforumz.com interface, at author's request Articles individually checked for conformance to usenet standards Topic URL: http://www.windowsforumz.com/Basics-...ict375239.html Visit Topic URL to contact author (reg. req'd).
