Internet Explorer browser window doesn't open all the way.?

Question

I have Windows XP and my problem is that when I open my browser from the desktop, the window doesn't open all the way. I have to click on the button in the top right hand of my screen to enlarge the browser window to the full view. Does anyone know what I need to do so when I click on Internet Explorer to open my browser, the window will open fully? Thanks.

Answer 1

Dennis, sometimes I have the same problem. It's a circus process. Pop IE open and maximize and immediately x out. If that doesn't work out try exiting through File>Exit while the window is maximized. Really just need to figure it out yourself.

Answer 2

Open a browser, click on the full screen square top-right, and then hold down the shift key while you click the X icon to close the browser.



The next time the browser will open with the settings it was at when you exited.

Answer 3

it's easy enough to fix just move the mouse cursor to the bottom right hand corner of the browser window it should then change to a double ended arrow then press and hold the left mouse button you should now be able to drag the window out to full size

Answer 4

open your browser and maximize it dont do any thing else after maximizing it close it

it will save the setting now it will open in maximize always

note: if you shutdown your computer improperly the saved setting will be removed (you have to do it again)

Answer 5

well there has been a report that no one should use ie anymore it has a security hole allowing hackers to steal your online game passwords and steal your data, i recommend not to use it anymore cuz that could be a problem already begiining so try to download firefox or chrome and etc.

P.S.no version of ie is safe
