a quick computer question

for the past 2-3 days when i open a new window, it will not open full size, but rather opens in a 1/8 page window and i have to maximize it to see the page.

i don't remember doing anything to cause this, but it is getting very aggravating.
what do i have to do to get the new page to open in a full size window??

Try this (from memory):

Maximize the window by dragging the corners of the window to the corners of the screen.

Hold the Shift (sometimes the CTRL) key while closing the window using the FILE > EXIT command (don't click on the "X" button).

See if that works.

That happens to me a lot.
It just corrects itself on it,s own.
I don't know what causes it.

When you open up the new page click the middle icon to maximize the page in thus will maximize it when ever you open a new page.

Hope it helps
