Default Help Request: I Can't Seem To Get My Original Window Size

I was wondering if anybody could help me adjust my window size back to it's
original setting. My 1 yr. old son was trying to imitate me & started to
press all the keys on my keyboard & he made all the windows large. I tried
to fix the problem by going to settings and adjusting the screen resolution,
but I just can't get it back to it's original size. If anybody could please
give me some advice as to how to fix the problem, I would really appreciate
it. Thank You!

Place the cursor on the corner of the Window you wish to resize, Hold
the right mouse button down and the cursor will change to an arrow
pointing in two directions. Still holding down the right mouse button
move the cursor to the position you want and release the mouse button.
Done correctly it should drag the edge of the Window to where you want.
Close the Window by clicking on the button with a white X in a red
background (top right of screen ). Next reopen the Window and it should
be resized.

This technique can be used to resize many but not all Windows on your
computer.

If the button to the left of the Close Window button is a single white
square within the button you can drag the whole window without resizing
it to a new position by holding down the left mouse button and moving
the mouse on your mouse mat.

For further information select Start, Help and Support and search using
"resize window" as your search option.

Hope this helps.
