All programs open in the small window
Original title: ask the community
Windows 8. All programs open in a small window. How to vary the size of this window, or alternatively, to have the new window opens automatically full size?
Thank you
Hi Matt
Yes, I have had this problem since I bought the computer.
However, I tried your suggestion and, guess what, IT WORKED!
I am so happy. Thanks for your help. Something so simple but if you don't know what to try then it can be so frustrating.
Incidentally (and this is not a complaint) by clicking on desktop icons now open full-screen windows, which suits me very well, but when I hit the screen button "reduced" on a window then all windows to open in reduced format, but ALL are EVEN smaller. I'll play a little more but thanks again. You have made my day.

All files opening with the same program?
Earlier today, I went to open a .zip with WinRar file. I've done this before and nothing is wrong, but this time, I noticed that all my desktop icons have changed and each of them were by opening with WinRar. It is especially annoying because I managed to download a Spanish version of WinRar somehow and do not include any of the popups.
I saw others asking the same thing and answers telling to go in Control Panel > programs > default programs > Set Program Access and computer by default, but I can't get there, because I don't know what program I open with.
I don't know if this has any sense at all and I feel stupid for not knowing all this, but some help would be appreciated.Hello
Most likely, you have associated shortcuts (.lnk files) with WinRAR. Although it is also possible that you have associated executables (.exe files) too (or instead). Fortunately, both can be fixed.
Here on this page is a list of all common file types.
http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.htmlScroll down and look for LNK files, click on him and it will download a file from the registry. Save this file to your desktop and run it to import the registry changes. Restart when it's done and I hope that it will be all solved.
