Explorer window

[Pete]

Is it possible to make Vista remember the Explorer (and other) window size
and position? I keep resizing it but the next time I start Explorer it
reverts back to a small window and the same position on the screen.

Hold down <shift> when closing the window with the X (top-right).
If that does not succeed, try holding down <ctrl> while closing.

Hi Pete--

I'd add to what Dev told you to resize the explorer window ***manually first
and then close holding down ctrl (I haven't used shift for this). It works
for both IE and Windows explorer folder windows. Sometimes you may have to
make a child window when you're working with IE windows, and manually resize
them both.

With respect to IE, popunders are the culprits that often alter size.

Good luck,

CH

Try deleting the 2 registry keys as described here:
