I FOUND A WORKAROUND !!!!!
In summary: use device emulation and zoom out!
- Open Developers tools (F12)
- Toggle device emulation (by clicking its icon in the upper left corner of the developers tools window).
- Navigate to Dimensions and chose an option that provides an adequate view of the page contents. (Nest Hub Max worked for me, if not for you: adjust manually by entering the prefered dimensions after selecting "Dimensions: Responsive".
- Click once within the borders of that Explorer options window.
- Zoom out by using Ctrl+Scroll or Ctrl+Minus Key. This will let you adjust the page to fit its originally undersized window.
As mentioned, the Developer tools can be opened by pressing F12. It can also be opened by pressing the three dots in the upper right corner of Edge, and then More Tools, and then Developer Tools.
Hope this helps. But indeed Microsoft, fix it!

Unfortunately, while that (painful) workaround can be used to display the entire Options window, it does not make it possible to change the options in that window, because:
- You can't work in the Options window with Developer Tools open.
- Closing Developer Tools reverts the Options window to its default size.
If I'm missing something, please let me know.

In my experiance (with the Rememberry extension) it DOES work to change the options while having Developers Tools open.
