Resizing XYplorer window

Good afternoon everybody,
I'm running XYplorer 28.40.0202 (64-bit) on Windows 10 and noticed that the resizing of its window doesn't work anymore.
When I click on the "Minimise" command, the window remains maximised and the folder path displayed in the top-left corner shifts slightly.

Press the button indicated in your screenshot until it is one square only, then goto the edge of the screen and resize it down, it is probably just not always maximized but just both sizes are full screen.
If you can't manage that try entering this in the xy addressbar
winsize 1000, 1000;

Thanks for your hint. It works, but this issue comes up whenever I close and the reopen XYplorer.
I noticed that the same behaviour occurs on Windows 11 too. Something has probably changed with the latest updates.

I have somewhat similar problem. XYplorer window starts maximized, and as soon as I click on any tab, its window state changes to normal, although still full screen.

Yup, same here. Clicking tab "normalizes" (un-maximizes)...

Huh? What's your setting at Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | Startup window state?

Startup window state = Maximized.
