About this tag
Discussions about default size in Windows and Internet Explorer focus on two main issues: text size not persisting across web pages and browser window size not retaining user preferences. Users report that after changing text size from default to a larger percentage, the setting reverts on subsequent pages, unlike in Windows 7. Others struggle to make Internet Explorer open in a maximized window instead of a smaller default size, with settings not being retained after a clean reinstall. These threads highlight common frustrations with default size behavior in Windows and IE, seeking solutions for persistent customization.
