Window size/location Amnesia

J

Jeff

I've posted this problem to several forums and have yet to get a solution.

I'm having a problem with IE6 that I've never had with it on any computer
before. Basically, on restart,IE will not remember the size and position of
its window.

I like to keep it to the right side of the desktop ata size that allows a
row or two of icons to be seen on the left. I've tried all the usual stuff
to save size/position (closing while holding the <SHIFT> jey, etc.), and
IE6 will 'remember' until restart. Then it always opens in the left-middle
of the desktop and in a small-ish window.

I'm guessing that it's a Registry value problem, but am not familiar enough
to know what to look for.

I'm using Windows XP home edition on a new system (HP) P4, 3.0GHz, 512RAM.
Would reinstalling IE6 help?

Appreciate any help.

Jeff,
Try this...
Open a webpage and make it the size you want. Open a link from that page in
a new window. Resize that window just like the first. Close the first window
then close the second window.

If you, at some point, resize a second window and close it in a different
size, these settings will probably be lost.
