Default explorer window size

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

Windows Explorer, where your folders are stored? Or Internet
Explorer? Either way, after you open it, *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.

Remember
1. The saved size of the first folder opened is used
2. In XP both folder view and explorer view share size settings.
3. It is 800x600 if there is no saved size.
