How do I force Windows Explorer to open maximized?
You are using an out of date browser. It may not display this or other websites correctly.
You should upgrade or use an alternative browser.

There is no command line argument to force Windows Explorer to open
maximized. You could probably write a batch file that opens Windows
Explorer and then maximizes the window, but I am not familiar with the
exact command sequence.

You could try the IE New Windows Maximizer.

This can be done in 2 ways - depending on how you are using it.
If you are lauching IE from a shortcut, then right click on shortcut icon,
select properties and define the Run dropdown as Maximised.
Otherwise, open IE and resize the IE window (not using the maximise button
at the top right) by streching the window edges to the extents of the
screen. Now close the window using the SHIFT key. The next time you open
IE, it should be maximised. Note that you may have to do this again in the
future if the window is reset by a web page. If you have to do it again,
always ensure that the last IE window you close is a maximised one if this
happens and you close it with the SHIFT key pressed.
Hope this helps.

Windows Explorer is not the same as Internet Explorer, Martin.

Sorry, my fault. Don't know where I got IE from, but the same advise
applies.

And what are you talking about? Internet Explorer or Windows Explorer?

How interesting. The window size for Windows Explorer on my copy of
Windows XP has no relationship to the size of the last Internet Explorer
window. And I can't recall any such relationship between Windows
Explorer and Internet Explorer in all the years I've been using them.
