opening new window on explorer
When I right click a link on an existing page, to open that link in a new window, the new window no longer opens up full screen, but instead opens it up half screen, so that I have to manually enlarge the new window. Where can I reset it so it opens the window/link as a full screen. thanks. Version 6.0.2

opening new window on explorer
Hi Rick,
This trick should work. Remove any 'Auto-hide' option for the taskbar and then maximise the problem window. While the window is maximised, increase the height of the taskbar from one row to two. Allow the maximised window to reset itself to fit into the new area allowed by the taller taskbar. Now return the taskbar to its normal single row. This is to try to make Windows re-calculate the window size and boundaries. If no joy, run regedit and remove these registry key values which are most likely corrupted: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\window_placement HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\OldWorkAreas\OldWorkAreaRects Then reboot. -- Hyperlinks are used to ensure advice remains current _______________________________________ Sandi - Microsoft MVP since 1999 (IE/OE) http://inetexplorer.mvps.org/ rickh wrote: When I right click a link on an existing page, to open that link in a new window, the new window no longer opens up full screen, but instead opens it up half screen, so that I have to manually enlarge the new window.
