What determines the window size upon opening IE? If in the registry, what
key?
key?

This is the fix to open any window to full screen size,
but it works to make it smaller if that's what you want.
Just adjust the fix to your specs.
First, *close all other windows*. Now, grab the corners
of the window and drag it to full screen size. Close the
window using File>Close, or File>Exit depending what
program you're in. Windows will remember the last screen
size used the next time you open the program.

If you close all windows except the one you just opened
and drag it to full size, then close, the size should be
remembered for all windows when you open the same way.
Do not use the maximize button.

Hi John 
There are many things that can cause a window in IE to change. Often,
whatever size the last window is when IE is closed, that is the size the
window will be when you next open IE Check the information here and see if
it helps:
