How to Get IE 7 to Save the Window Positions and Sizes

by ToolsReview on Sunday, March 16, 2008

Sometimes, Internet Explorer 7 seems to have a mind of its own. The windows won’t save their positions – everytime you open the program, the window must be manually resized

There is an easy way to get IE7 to save its window positions:

  • Open a web page.
  • Stretch it and move it to the size you want (full size if that is what you prefer). Don’t use the maximize button or function.
  • Choose any link on the page and right click on it  and pick "open a new window".
  • Move the second window to the size you want manually (stretch it with the bottom right hand corner). Again, don’t use the maximize button.
  • Close the first window.
  • Close the second window.

Now when you reopen IE 7, the window should open to your new "stretched" size.

That’s it!
