Excel resizes screen resolution upon opening. How to fix?
I just started a new job and the computer I'm using has the problem of
resizing my window to 800X600 whenever I open Excel and only Excel. Does anyone know why this might be the case? |

My first guess is that you have a helpful program/workbook/addin that's not too
helpful. You can do some detective work to find out what it is.

Thanks for the information but it didn't fix the problem. It's really
annoying to have to go back and forth. "Dave Peterson" wrote: My first guess is that you have a helpful program/workbook/addin that's not too helpful.

When you tried opening excel in Safe mode, did the resolution change?
If yes, then I don't have a guess. If no, then I'd look at those note pages once more. healthyfatboy wrote: Thanks for the information but it didn't fix the problem.

Yes, I tried Safe mode and it still did it. I guess I'll just have to deal
with it. Thanks for all your help. "Dave Peterson" wrote: When you tried opening excel in Safe mode, did the resolution change? If yes, then I don't have a guess.
