Sorry this is probably the stupidest question ever, but I am gonna ask it. You know how you can maximize Notepad to take up all of the screen? You also know you can restore it to a smaller size right? Well I can't mine you can only maximize. If I try to restore it just disappears and I have to go to the tray, right click, and maximize it again. This is really annoying please help.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
At the very top in the blue coloured bar- right click- the menu will have RESTORE- choosing that will give you back the 'sizing' The notepad++ view will not be filling the screen.

It sounds like your NPP is sized and moved out of your screen.
You can do so as previous post suggested.
Another method is to switch to NPP. You can do so by Alt-Tab to it or select from the Task Manager.
Even though it can't be seen, press Alt-Space to bring up the System menu (Restore, Move, Size, Minimize, Maximize & Close), use your Up/Down arrow key to select "Move" from the list. Depends on where your mouse cursor is on your screen (top/right, top/left, bottom/right, bottom/left corner), use your mouse or arrow key to move NPP gradually into the screen area.
You can also select Size from the System menu. You can use the same technique described above to resize NPP.
This technique is applicable to all programs with the System menu enabled.
Best Regards
