Right-click on the application shortcut icon, select Properties/Shortcut and
in the 'Run' box, scroll and select 'Maximised'

I know that this is an old thread, but how do you maximise the internet
explorer windows so that every window i open in IE is maximised.
Thanks

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

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.

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".

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')

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.

Ah! - I use an IE short-cut on my QL T'bar. The (Sizing) Properties can be
set there.

S'pose you could try re-setting the Defaults on the Advanced page to see if
that fixes it - although I don't know which (if any) sets the pane size.
