Microsoft 365 - window displays
How do I STOP Excel from offsetting window displays (so the filename can be seen for multiple spreadsheets)?

Hi smbetz ,
I guess now I understand your problem. As far as I can see, Excel stores the window size of the last window when you close the application.
So usually, when the last window is really fullscreen, Excel will start also fullscreen next time. If this is not the case on your side, unfortunately, I'm not aware of special setting for this behaviour.
Sorry.

Sergei, I appreciate the reference, but that's a bit over my head; I am just an end user of this product. I have been using Microsoft 365 and its predecessor since May of 2018 and this just happened. I was hoping that there was a setting to restore my preferred method of opening my spreadsheets with each spreadsheet occupying my full screen. Oh, well.

- smbetzDec 09, 2021Copper ContributorThanks, Martin_Weiss, for solving the problem. Somehow I had resized my Excel spreadsheet ever so slightly. I have a hand tremor and get interesting results from time to time.
