Thank you so much for this info, but when I follow your steps, after I press Enter to get into the properties, as I tab through, here's all I hav: The URL, Shortcut Key, Change Icon button, OK button, Cancel button, And Apply button. I am not seeing the run combo box anywhere where I can select Maximize instead of normal. Am I doing something wrong?

To change that, highlight the shortcut on your desktop; Press alt=Enter for Properties; then tab over to the Run combo box, and down arrow to 'maximized'. Tab over to the OK button, and then ENTER on Ok. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Donnie Parrett" <deparr...@prtcnet.org> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Sunday, February 16, 2014 5:42 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Maximizing With Windows 7 > Auto Sizer 7.1 seems to be working with my Windows 7 64 bit machine. > Let me > tell you what I am experiencing though.
