I searched Google for a resolution, and one answer said that if I close it by right-clicking on the top bar and choose Close instead of just pressing the X to close it, that it would remember to open Maximized every time, but its not working.

Is there any way to fix it Its really starting to bug me and Im about to go back to Firefox if I cant find a resolution.

Im on Windows 7, by the way, in case that matters.

The same thing happens to me from time to time where Chrome doesnt start out maximized (or at least in a window thats almost maximized).

Heres what I found that seems to be the problem and then the solution.

Problem: I open up Chrome, using it - no problem so far Chrome window is left open - then I run a gameprogram that causes the resolution to differ from my default I exit the programapplication I was using and Chrome window is now small, even after I maximize the window and then close it out, it still keeps that small window size whenever I open a new Chrome window (talk about irritating as hell) Solution (hopefully this isnt to hard to understand or follow): Open Chrome and expand the window to fill the screen (not sure if this works with maximizing, I dont think I ever tried) After you get your Chrome window to the size you want, open a second window for Chrome to run in (dont start a new TAB, run the Chrome.exe again) This should open a second window to match (or be very close in size) the size of your first window Close out the FIRST window (hit the X button) that you made in Step 1 Close out the SECOND window you made in Step 2 After all Chrome windows are closed, open Chrome back up - it SHOULD start you with a full screen (or maximized.or whatever size you set your scree to be) upon a new Chrome window starting up.

This is what I do, it only takes a moment, but it seems to resolve the problem - until it happens again.

Thankfully its not a common issue that I have to correct on a normal basis.

I hope this helps.

Good luck and sorry there isnt something more simple, but this is the only thing I found that works.
