Front Internet Explorer page not full page...

[Arnie]

For some reason my home internet explorer page does not
reach the top of the screen. There is a .5 inch gap at
the top. It has just recently happened. I assume this is
something simple, I just haven't been able to get the
front page to full screen. I have already tried f11 and
most basic fixes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Remove any 'Auto-hide' option for the Windows taskbar and while the window
is maximized, resize the taskbar then return it to the desired size. 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:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\window_placement

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Desktop\OldWorkAreas\OldWorkAreaRects

Then reboot.
