Well, that certainly does what it says on the tin!
I have been trying to get my ie windows to open fullscreen for ages and after many, many "helpful" suggestions that didn't work this little app does the job!0 -
What's wrong with hitting F11?
Or being really clever having a shortcut in the shortcut bar containing "javascript:void(window.resizeTo(width,height))"
width/height being your screen resolution.
I have several of those shortcuts to give different sizes at the click of a button.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

In the case of IE, I have found that once its been maximized, closing and restarting it immediately ensures it starts in future as maximized. No special prog needed.0

Oh, oh and!!! the command I posted above can also be added to the command line in the IE or Firefox shortcut so that it always opens at a certain set size“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

I have tried everything to get the windows opening to full size,from dragging each corner to closing and restarting,etc.
Opening I.E. from a shortcut icon isn`t a problem but opening from start ---- favs ---- IS.
The above small,free program solves the issue.0
