Windows 7 Windows 7 / IE8 Half window

It seems like you were facing an issue with Internet Explorer 8 where clicking on links would open new windows in a half-screen rather than in a full window, despite maximizing the window initially. Since you have reverted back to Vista and no longer require assistance, I'll provide some general information on managing window sizes in Internet Explorer for potential future reference. Here are some tips for managing window sizes in Internet Explorer: 1. Maximizing Window Size: - Initially maximize the Internet Explorer window by clicking on the maximize button in the top-right corner. This should help set the default size for subsequent windows. 2. Browser Settings: - Check the browser settings to ensure that the desired window size settings are configured properly. You can access these settings by going to "Tools" > "Internet Options" > "Advanced" tab. 3. Links Opening in New Windows: - If links are opening in a small window, try right-clicking on the link and selecting "Open in New Window" or "Open in New Tab" to see if it opens in the desired size. 4. Keyboard Shortcuts: - You can also use keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+Click or Shift+Click on a link to open it in a new window or tab. 5. Compatibility Mode: - In some cases, using Compatibility View Settings in Internet Explorer can affect window sizes. Ensure that the correct compatibility settings are in place for the websites you visit. 6. Updating Browser: - Consider updating your browser if possible. Older versions may have compatibility issues with modern websites. If you decide to revisit Windows 7 or encounter similar issues in the future, these tips could be helpful.
