The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows 95

SYMPTOMS

When you resize the Windows 95 desktop, some dialog boxes may no longer be displayed properly, and you may not be able to access the fields and buttons at the bottom of a tall dialog box.

CAUSE

When you resize the desktop, Windows 95 resizes all the windows that are too big to fit in the new desktop area. If the taskbar is larger than its default size, some dialog boxes may be clipped.

RESOLUTION

To ensure that all dialog boxes fit properly, leave the taskbar at its default size.
