Default IE opens new pages minimised

I must have inadvertently changed a setting somewhere
any new IE page I download opens minimised as just a bar.
Where may I look to "open full screen" ?

Thanks

(1) Set the folder/window as you will.
(2) Even resize it, USING the mouse and dragging the borders.
(3) Hold Ctrl as you click to close the folder/window.
(4) Perhaps, reboot.

If you wish, also "START, Settings, Folder Options, View tab, Reset all
folders" before step (1). Then, "Like current folder" before step (3).
Of course, all individualized folder settings, except perhaps "thumbnail
view", will be lost. If still unhappy, try turning off "Remember each
folders' view settings" before step (1), and back on later.

Here are some articles that might have additional info.

Well, OK
yes dragged the bottom rhs corner of the bar
till it fitted the page,
held CTRL whilst I used the X to exit the page,
works fine now.

May your lotto tickets bear fruit.

Well then it's a pity you were not born an Australian
I would have a 4 million record thoroughbred database
and I might have been able to respond in kind with some help PCR.

I think I'm still better off, though, not having to be up-side-down as
you folk & Chinamen are said to be. But thanks for the offer!
