I am trying to set an document scanning application (Fujitsu Scandall
Pro v1.7) to open maximized everytime it is run. This was easy enough
in v1.6 as it would remember the last windows position, however v1.7
will not open maximized.

I have tried the shortcut trick( Shortcut Properties Shortcut
Run : Maximized).

I have also tried start /max application.exe from the command line.
Both of these do not work.

Downloading a 3rd party tool is not an option.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Thanks SM,

Yes, but the problem is that the workstations the application is
running on has a dashboard at the top of the screen. There is some
interaction between the application and the dashboard causing the
application to open little higher on the screen each time it is
launched until it is off the screen entirely. Our end users are not
savy enough to be able to move a window once its top bar is off
screen.

Also I have found that it is not the WinPos registry key that holds
the information to launch the program maximized. The winpos key works
the same in v1.6 and v1.7. It contains the last non-maximized window
position. I have not been able to find the key or setting in the v1.6
registry or ini files that tell it to open maximized.

Thanks again,
Blake

I know you have stated that third party utilities are not an option
but have you considered trying Autosizer?

I don't know that our organization would allow a 3rd party tool. I
will check it out though.

I wish I could find the registry key or ini file that tells v1.6 to
open maximized.

Thanks
