SYMPTOMS
========
When you double-click a shortcut to an MS-DOS-based program that is set to run
in a normal window, the program may be maximized when it opens.
CAUSE
=====
This problem can occur if the program window was maximized and then closed.
RESOLUTION
==========
To work around this problem, start the MS-DOS-based program, and then press
ALT+ENTER. This restores the program to a normal window. Note that you can
toggle between normal window and maximized at any time by pressing ALT+ENTER.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows 95. We are researching
this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base
as it becomes available.
MORE INFORMATION
================
Windows-based programs contain program-specific settings which determine the
window state at startup. The normal window setting for a shortcut to a
Windows-based program starts the program in it's default window state.
