Default maximize

Cannot confirm window size in internet explorer shortcut as it does not give
me the option. It lists the internet properties which is a whole new ball
game altogether.

OK, well all mine open in the (same size) 'Normal' window (manually resized
as [almost] maximised) and each and every fresh link opens that way too.
Just confirm the window size setting in the short-cut properties. It does
this for both "Open" and "Open in New Window".
BTW - does your actually say "open link in new window"? i.e include the word
"link" - Can't think of anything else.

How do i go about doing the scanreg /fix.


Start | Run and type "scanreg /fix" (no quotes) and OK.
(but no longer too hopeful its going to fix this issue tho')

When browsing the internet instead of "double clicking" a link on a page,
Highlight the link then press right mouse button and scroll down to "open
link in new window".

Right-click what? Not exactly sure what you mean.

Do you mean right-click the same (or different) short-cut (check its
Properties) - or are you saying that when you have two (or more) IE's
open
at a time, the second (and subsequent) pane(s) open in a less than Max
window?

Did you resize (pull the edges) or just use the Max button - but either
way
it 'should' still remember.

I don't seem to have that trouble here, so I can't think of a solution. I
note elsewhere that you are having other issues with IE. Maybe a scanreg
/fix *might* help in this case.

Old!? - Jeepers Pauly, about two years old!! However ...

If, after opening IE, you then re-size the pane to full screen (or
just
use
the Maximise button to resize it), then immediately close IE, it
*should*
open as Maximised next (and every) time you open it.

BUT!!!! - You need to confirm that in Windows Explorer | Tools |
Folder
Options \ View, that the 'Remember each folder's view settings' option
is
checked (ticked)

Good luck
