| | Windows Explorer Default Size I have been trying, without success, to have Windows Explorer open as "Maximized". Yet, it continues to only open in a pre-set size. How do I get Windows Explorer to open as "Maximized"? Thanks -- Life is an adventure with God leading. |

| | Re: Windows Explorer Default Size Rather than maximizing the window, drag it out to the sides of the display with the mouse instead - drag the borders so it fills the screen - then close the window. That should allow you to close it and then re-open it at the desired size.
