Changing the size of a window

• To make a window fill the entire screen, click its Maximize button  or double-click the window's title bar.
• To return a maximized window to its former size, click its Restore button  (this appears in place of the Maximize button). Or, double-click the window's title bar.
• To resize a window (make it smaller or bigger), point to any of the window's borders or corners. When the mouse pointer changes to a two-headed arrow (see picture below), drag the border or corner to shrink or enlarge the window.
  Drag a window's border or corner to resize it
  A window that is maximized cannot be resized. You must restore it to its previous size first.

Note

• Although most windows can be maximized and resized, there are some windows that are fixed in size, such as dialog boxes
