If you just want to start Word maximized, right-click on the shortcut you
use to start Word, choose Properties, select the Shortcut tab, and choose
"Maximized" in the Run box.
I suspect, however, that what you are seeing is documents that appear to be
minimized to the Taskbar when they really aren't. If this is the case,
right-click on the Taskbar button for the document. If your available
choices include Maximize and Minimize but not Restore, then the document is
in a Normal window offscreen. Open any other window, then right-click on an
empty area of the Taskbar and choose Cascade. This should bring your Word
window back in view. Use the mouse to move and size it to your preference,
then quit Word. When you restart Word, the window should be where you left
it.
