And it happened again. Somehow Internet Explorer kept opening in a teeny tiny little window instead of about 76% of the screen like I like it. And it didn’t remember the size when I changed it for the next time.
So I went to Google again and it took five or so pages until I found the real solution. Not the “I think” or “try this” or “this should work”.
Here is the way of doing it that I found works:
- Close all Internet Explorer windows
- Open one Internet Explorer instance
- Take your mouse and (place and) size the window the way you want it
- If you are running Vista and don’t see the menu in Internet Explorer, press the “Alt” key
- In the menu, click on “File”
- Now put one finger on the “Ctrl” key and keep it there
- Click on “Exit” in the File menu
- Once Internet Explorer is closed, release the “Ctrl” key
That’s it.
