Maximising a window

• If you look at the top-right of the Welcome Center window you will see three icons. As illustrated below.
  
  
  

• Move the mouse pointer over the middle of the three icons and after a short time you will see a popup explaining the function of the middle icon.
  
  
  

• As you can see the icon is called the Maximise icon.  Click on the Maximise icon and you will see that the Welcome Center program window maximises, to fill the screen.
  

• Move the mouse pointer over the middle icon and wait for the popup to explain the function of the icon (which has changed slightly if you look closely).
  
  
  
  TIP: The reason for the middle icon changing its appearance (and its name), is that having already maximised the window to fill the screen, you cannot maximise any further.  Thus you are offered a Restore icon that will restore the program window to its original size.  This is an example of Windows being clever!
  
  Click on the Restore Down icon and you should see that the Welcome Center window is displayed within a window (i.e. not full screen).  You should find that the window is the same size and position, prior to maximising the window.
