How to change Chrome's default window size?
« on: November 30, 2020, 05:33 PM »
Hi,

when I open a new Chrome window by clicking its icon the window opens maximized as it should, but when I use AutoHotkey to open a link in Chrome, Chrome's window opens in a weird size for a few weeks now, way too small. It used to be a bigger size, I don't know what happened.

I've searched Google for the answer, but what was recommended there either doesn't work or I couldn't understand it. Any pointers?
Thank you.

Try resizing the Chrome window to you preferred size, then hold down CTRL while closing the browser (using the mouse to hit "X"). This should save your current window dimensions, 'though it doesn't always work

Thanks. I've tried that twice, sadly that didn't work either. :(
