Programs run 'wondowed'

Hi,

Several programs that I use will only run windowed which would previously
run full-screen and I can see no way of changing over. Any ideas would be
much appreciated.

Ummm.... what programs? Many have keystrokes that can be used to toggle
between window mode and full screen. F11 works for Internet Explorer but it
may be a different key or key combination for other programs. Old DOS
programs and some games use ALT+Enter as their toggle. The individual
program help files should tell what key combo is needed for those that
you're concerned about. Or you may find the full screen switch listed in
one of the program's menus.

You have not said how you launch these affected programs. Usually, if
you RIGHT CLICK the icon used to launch the program, and select
Properties, you will see a RUN option under the SHORTCUT tab. Select
the Maximized option. This SHOULD give you what you are looking for.
