How can I reset the open file window in Google Chrome back to it's default size?
My wife resized it when uploading photo's to a website and I would like to reset it
I have deleted the BagMRU & Bags registry keys, but they do not appear to affect Chrome
I have also deleted my user profile and started Chrome from scratch but that does not make any difference either
Thank you

No, Chrome isn’t a normal window, so ShellBags has no effect on it. Instead, Chrome handles its own window-positioning (well, normally, when it works; sometimes it gets stuck or reset/forgets).
First, close all Chrome windows (and make sure that there are no
CHROME.EXE
instances running in Task Manager). Open your Chrome profile (theUser Data
folder) and look for theLocal State
file. Open it in a text-editor and look for thewindow_placement
section inside thebrowser
section and delete that—this is a structured file, so make sure to get the quotes and braces correctly. (There are otherwindow_placement
sections for other things like the Options dialog, Task Manager, etc.) Finally, save and open Chrome; it should open at a “default” location, but should remember where you set it when you subsequently close it.
