One thing that annoys me in Vista is that Windows Explorer always opens to the same default window size that is too small to be useful.


It works fine on my Vista installation: If I open Windows Explorer with Win+E, it comes up at the same size as when I closed it.

If you're feeling brave, you can try the following, which involves modifying the registry:

Under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell, there are two keys: "BagMRU" and "Bags". Try deleting these to see if the problem fixes itself. You may need to log off and log back on to get this to persist.

I just did this myself and it caused any opened Windows Explorer windows (e.g. from Start/Run, and entering a specific path) to come up in the default position.
