Borrowed: Wish I could remember who first posted this...
Many readers report problems with IE's window sizing. Like its cousin
Windows Explorer, IE has a notoriously bad memory for certain things, window
sizes among them. Here is a technique that often fixes the problem, though
it's not guaranteed. First, close all open IE windows, then launch IE again.
Right-click on any link and choose Open in New Window. Resize the resulting
secondary window to the size you want for all secondary windows.
Now close the window by holding the Shift key and clicking the X icon in its
top-right-hand corner. Set the remaining window to the size you want IE to
have when initially launched, and close it in the same way. IE should now
remember your preferred window sizes. If it forgets after a while, apply
this simple fix again.
Post by RichWhenever I open a new window with Internet Explorer, it only comes up as
"half-size". Instead of manually maximizing it every time, how do I set up
IE to maximize it when the window is first opened?
