I use newsleecher for ng's. With certain file types, it opens them in Notepad. For some reason, when it opens Notepad, it does so in a very narrow window (I think I set a notepad window to this size some months ago, and for some reason windows "remembers" it). I want newsleecher to open the notepad window maximized. I know how to set this from a shortcut in properties, but how do you set it when another program opens notepad? There don't appear to be any right click settings on notepad.exe itself.
Open one Notepad window, resize it, (but don't Maximize it,) press Ctrl key as you click the X to close the program. It will sometimes be remembered for you.

Joe-It worked! Seems like a small thing, but resizing all those windows was getting to be a real PITA!

A major Quality of Life improvement!!! ;-)

Thanks!
