Resizing an Excel Window

Any chance on this:

1. Use the Restore Down Button

• If Excel is maximized, click the middle button in the top-right corner (between minimize and close).
• This should restore it to a resizable window.
• Then, drag the edges or corners to your preferred size.

2. Manually Resize from the Taskbar

• Hold Shift, then right-click the Excel icon on the taskbar.
• Select Move.
• Use your arrow keys to bring the window into view if it’s off-screen.
• Once visible, drag the edges to resize.

3. Resize and Close to Save the Size

• Resize the Excel window manually (don’t maximize).
• Then hold Ctrl and click the X (close) button.
• This can help Windows remember your preferred size next time.

4. Check Compatibility Settings

• Right-click the Excel shortcut or executable.
• Go to Properties > Compatibility.
• Make sure “Run this program in compatibility mode” is unchecked.

5. Disable Hardware Graphics Acceleration

• Open Excel → Go to File > Options > Advanced.
• Scroll to Display.
• Check “Disable hardware graphics acceleration”.
• Restart Excel.
