A person who is just starting to master a computer will undoubtedly face a number of tasks for which not so much an advanced, but even an ordinary user, will only burst into a fist. One of them is window resizing.
Instructions
Step 1
To resize a window, move the cursor over its edge. When it looks like a double-headed arrow, hold down the left button and drag the mouse in the required direction. Accordingly, the window will shrink (if pulled inward) or enlarged (if outward). This action can be applied to all sides of the window: top, bottom, left and right. To resize two faces at once, move the cursor over the corner of the window. In this case, it will also take the form of a double-sided arrow, but now diagonal. Hold down the left button and drag the mouse in the desired direction.
Step 2
It is worth noting here that in Windows 7 (popularly - "seven") the sizes for all windows are saved automatically after they are changed. And in the Windows XP operating system there is a separate setting for this.
Step 3
To do this, open the "Folder Options" window (recall that we are now considering the case with Windows XP). You can do this in several ways, each of which starts with the fact that you need to open the control panel: click the "Start" button, which is located on the left side of the taskbar, and then select the "Control Panel" item. Now, in fact, the ways. The first - already in the control panel window, click the main menu item "Tools"> "Folder options". Second, if the control panel is displayed by categories, click on "Appearance and Themes" and then "Folder Options". Third - if the control panel has a classic look, just double-click on the item "Folder Options".
Step 4
In the window that appears, select the "View" tab, and then in the "Advanced options" list, find the item "Remember display options for each folder" and put a checkmark next to it. Click “Apply” and then OK to save your changes. In the same way, the dimensions of not only folders are changed, but also programs: browsers, games, players, etc.
