Tip & How To about Microsoft Internet Explorer 8
Use Winsize2 to remember any Windows Size using its HotKey
I always had trouble with IE8 not holding its full size window and also the command prompt for my batch files on my 1280x1024 TFT screen I tried many Reg Tweaks but none seemed to work after a restart, then I found Winsize2 on this download link

When you use the standard hotkey "CTRL+ALT+Y" on the active window it will save the windows size in its own ini file so that if the window is closed it will always reopen with the saved size that it was when you used the hotkey
Winsize2.ini file stored in the Margrasoft's %appdata% folder will auto-increment value AWNr_x as for each time the hotkey is pressed, you can edit the Special Parameters by right clicking here is an example showing the command prompt resized larger than the default settings. You can also check the use a different ini file for each screen width 1280 or 1024 etc.

NOTE: This will not overwrite the command settings in the Command Prompt properties window if its set to a width of 100 winsize2 will resize and use its ini settings
