Hi there, I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium x64. I have an issue with Remote Desktop Connection program. What happen is, I can start it up with full screen no problem. But when I click on the "restore down" button so I can re-size it temporarily, it won't return to full screen when I click on the "maximize" button. What it does instead is it make the window as large as possible covering the entire screen like when you open up internet explorer, still with the 3 "minimize", "restore down", "close" button at the top-right. Not a full screen as I initially start with. How do I make it return to full screen?

That iis a long standing problem with the remote desktop. I found the old telnet days were easier. Linux has a web broser based tool and can manage for most purposes. Windows seems to fall short in this dept. Vote if answered or helpful, I am running for Office (joke)! IT/Developer, Windows/Linux/Mainframe Need a some parts finish the new server, see the site for remaining items needed

found it in some forums. there's some kind of a "bug" with certain resolution that cause it to refuse full screen. the only way to force it back to full screen mode is by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Break

Thank you, p.andrew! I just hate the interruption it was causing while trying to get work done, so a workaround was all I needed. Thanks again.

thanks a lot p.andrew.
