Guest Victor Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 I have desktop shortcuts for each of these and have set the properties to open maximized, but every time I open them they are in a very small window which is good for nothing. How can I set them to open maximized, or have them retain their size? Thanks.

Microsoft was very lame in their possible solutions so someone came up with a separate application: http://www.southbaypc.com/AutoSizer/

Start -> Run MMC File -> Open %windir%\system32\services.msc File -> Options uncheck "Do not save changes to this console" maximize the window, close it, answer "Yes" Do so for all MMC plugins you want to have maximized.
