About Kathy Frye Expertise I am a Microsoft Certified Professional with a background in hardware/software troubleshooting and Microsoft user training. I am presently completing the Microsoft Office User Specialist (MOUS) certification and would welcome questions about any Office product. If I don`t know the answer I`ll certainly do my best to research and find the solution!
Experience I have over ten years of experience, ranging from hardware/software support to technology recommendations for local city-county government divisions. I am currently self-employed as a computer consultant for select businesses in my community.
Question Photo editor window size is always Maximum.
I am unable to rezize it. Maximum and Minimized are the only two options.
I tried increasing my screen resolution so that I could grab and resize the window. No matter what I set the screen resolution to, the window is at Maximum. RMB on task bar has the Restore option greyed out unless I select Minimize first. However, Restore then does nothing.
Thanks,
Jim Chakuroff
Answer Good morning,
The following registry edit should work for you. Open your Registry Editor (from the Start/Run command line, type either REGEDIT or REGEDT32, depending on your operating system). Navigate to the following key/value:
In the right window pane, you should see a value entitled "Initial Position"...right-click on it and delete it. Close the Registry window and re-open Photo Editor. Again, depending upon the operating system you're using, you may need to re-boot for the change to take effect.
I'd never noticed the "always maximized" setting in this app and just tried the fix on my machine...works like a charm. Let me know if you need additional help.
