Hello,

When you run msconfig.exe, the dialog box is rather small and the file
name paths very long. Is there a way to make dialog box bigger for
easier viewing of file paths?

TIA
Bill

In the msconfig/Startup tab, position the cursor at the far right side of
the Location section until it turns into a double arrow cross. Press and
hold the left mouse button and drag the cursor to the right side of the
monitor. You can then use the horizontal scroll bar to move to the end of
the expanded section and see the entire path of the item.

No and yes. There is no official way to do it, but you could use tools like
Resource Hacker to edit dialog windows of msconfig. Use web search engines
to find those tools.
