Default Window Sizes


Hi All,

Could someone please help me to get to a position whereby when I resize a
Window and change the view style, that Vista Home Premium actually keep
those settings and does not keep changing the Window position and view every
time I reopen the window and after a reboot as well.

It is actually starting to drive me mad with frustration.....

Thanks in advance

Hold down the <shift> key when closing the window with the X.
If no go, try the <ctrl> key.
Still no joy? Post again, and other tips will be offered.

I have tried both of those options for days no, and unfortunately, neither
seems to work...It is getting very frustrating.

Any other ideas?

Regards

This is a valid URL, but the site appears to be having problems and is
unreachable at times. Try later.
