Default Need computer help...
Several minutes ago, I was preparing an online ad with Hemmings. I hit an "e" instead of some other key, and my screen with to half-size for the page. I can make it go to full screen by hitting F11, but all other sites don't show.

Now what? Thanks.

Turn it off, then back on. Fixes everything.

When you hit F11 to make full screen, and then F11 again, what do you see? No tabs? Just one browser page?

When I hit F11 for the second time, I see all tabs, but all are just reduced in size to 1/2 page.

I moved the 1/2 page to the left side of the screen by hitting Ctrl + Alt + left arrow so that I could get to the screen size button. all is well now. Thanks....I guess.

Just hover the cursor over the very edge of the window, then click and drag the edge to make the window whatever size you want.
