View Full Version : Minature New windows

Just had a bout with Spyware and Adware. I was able to
finally get rid of everything, but one thing that did
occur but have not been able to correct, is every window
that opens, opens in a postage stamp size. I can click on
Maximize to open it up with no trouble, but this is
getting annoying.
Any suggestion to reset the opening setting?

Don't maximise the window, drag it to your preferred size. Then close it.
What happens if you now open a new window?

Mike:
That works, but isn't there some sort of 'Default'
setting or some universal way of correcting this problem
other than one window at a time?
I do thank you for your kind assistance.

Jacquie,

If you are referring to Explorer then you shouldn't have to keep doing it.
Once you've opened the window in the way I suggested and then exited Explorer
the next time you open Explorer it should be in the larger size you selected.

If you're talking about every application and window you open then yes, it
would appear that there is something wrong and needing correction.
Unfortunately at the moment I'm not sure I know how to correct that and don't
really have the time to look into it today. Sorry.
