    Have a program screen that disappears whenever I try to use the “restore” button on the top right. It acts like I chose to minimize it. The button is still present in the taskbar, but to view it again I have to choose “maximize”.
    My question: is there a .ini file (or other file) that points to default window size and location?

    It sounds like it's specific to a certain program, since you didn't mention it was happening to any/all windows. Did this just start happening, or has it been like this since the program in question was installed? Could be a bug in the program itself.

    It's been awhile, but I believe if you open Windows Explorer, go to 'tools', then 'folder options', then choose 'view', there's an option to 'always maximize' folders when opened.

    The programs that are currently not opening properly are MS Photo editor, worked up until about a month ago, and now MS outlook express.
