Making folders come up Full Screen
Some of my desktop folders come up about 1/2 screen when I click on them.
How do I make them ALL come up full screen? Thanks

Hi popporge, welcome to Windows Seven Forums
Right click on the Desktop folder icon & on the drop down menu select Properties, under the Shortcut Tab you will see Run & alongside that there is little down arrow, this opens 3 options. The first is Normal Window, the second is Minimised & the third is Maximised. So select that one that desktop folder should now open maximised.

After you open the file in the folder, drag it to the top of the screen, from then on it will always open full screen.

Unfortunately I do not have a shortcut key in most of my desktop folders.

Did you follow the directions I posted. Right Click on the desktop folder & at the bottom of the drop down menu is Properties, select that & it should have a series of tabs & one of those is the Short Cut one. There is no key as you have mentioned.
Have you tried AddRAM's solution as well, in Post #3

Well addram, maybe you could be more specific. I thought I had finally solved it, but that didn't work either. Let me explain more specifically what I am talking about. I have multiple folders or should I say icons that appear on my home screen when I log in, such as my bank or facebook or my mail etc.
I used to be able to just double click on any one of these and they would come up on a full screen, then I would work with them. Now, most of them come up 1/2 screen and then I have to click up in the corner to maximize them. Obviously something I did along the way caused this, but I don't know what it was. As far as having a shortcut key, it does not come up with most of my icons.
