    vista...windows size in explorer
    « on: July 15, 2008, 02:34:05 AM »
    Hey everyone,
    I had such good luck on here and I was telling a friend of mine and he wanted me to post a question for him. He has windows Vista and browsing with explorer 7. He says he knows about hitting f11 to maximize the window but he wanted to know how he could just have it maximize on its own without having to hit f11.
    Also he said when he opens regular windows like control panel, they open small also.
    Thanks for all your help..

    Maximize program's window, using "Maximize" button in upper right corner.
    Hold CTRL key, and close window.
    Next time, it should start maximized.
    ...but, sometimes Windows won't listen.
    In this case, get: http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file/fid,25158-order,0-page,1-c,desktop/description.html

        Well, we tried closing the windows after maximizing them and holding control and you was right...windows didnt listen, so we downloaded the program and it is working perfectly!
        I thank you and my friend thanks you!

              oh yes you do...if you want help that is.
              Always listen to what others have to say...there will be a time when you will want others to listen to you.
