When I open internet explorer, it keeps opening in the reduced size, which I then need to expand, is there a quick fix to open up the pages in full.
thanks in advance.

  • full window fix
    Open a single IE window to the smaller size.
    Drag the corners of the window until it completely fills the screen. Do not use the maximize button to enlarge the window.
    Hold down the Ctrl key and keep it depressed. Using the mouse, click File and then Exit on the menu bar. Do not use the "X" in the upper right corner to close the window.
    IE should now open in a full window.
    If IE still opens to a smaller size, repeat the above steps, but substitute the Shift key for the Ctrl key.

    As above, plus you could read this thread in the Techie section:

    PC help - windows are too small

    Says the same thing at greater length.

    When I click onto the IE icon the window will open to a full size.

    If I go to "start"
    "favourites"
    and click onto to one of them,the window always opens to small size and doing the above makes no difference.
