Hi Ken
When I maximize the Internet Explorer window, it no
longer fills the full screen. It now stays down an inch
or so from the top of my screen. I cannot get it to move
up and fill the whole screen. My other programs maximize
fine.
What could cause this, and how can I correct it?
Try the following and see if it helps:
Try stretching the small window to full size. (Do not use Maximize)
Ensure that window is the last one closed and IE should remember the
size next time.
or..............
Do *not* to maximize the window when you want to preserve a window's normal
properties. From your description is sounds as if you may be getting
temporary persistence of a window's maximized properties. In that case a
window's normal properties would be unchanged. In order to save a window's
normal properties you have to close the window in normal mode; further, if
there are any other windows open in normal mode still open their properties
will be preserved when they close. So if you aren't making sure that
iexplore.exe is no longer an active process (e.g. using Task Manager) after
you close your modified window that could also explain your symptom even if
you are making your modifications
on a normal mode window.
