Hi dawn,

Let's try something different.. Place your mouse pointer over
the Title Bar where it says "Spider Solitaire" and double click.

That should restore your window size.

Hi,

I began having this problem a few days ago, and I have tried everything you
suggested in this thread, to no avail. Do you have any other suggestions?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I, too, am experiencing this problem; however, I know what I did to cause
mine. While installing a new trackball mouse, I accidentally resized my
Spider Solitaire window down to nothing. When I click "restore", I get
nothing. When I click "size" my cursor goes to the 4-way arrow, but because
it cannot find (and I cannot see) the minimized/resized window, it never
changes to the 2-way arrow where I can resize again.

Any ideas about this problem? Is there someplace to go to manually set the
window size, like you can resize a picture embedded inside a document by
right-clicking?

Thanks, Georgina
