P: Files open with wrong window size on non-Retina screens attached to Retina Macs

I'm working on my external (non-Retina) monitor, with my Retina MacBook as a secondary screen next to it. Not uncommon, I believe.

When I open a document Photoshop displays it at Retina-size (i.e 50%) for a split-second before zooming in to 100%. It keeps the window size at 50% though. Since this can get a little annoying Photoshop should adjust the window size to show the full document instead.

(This happens with "Zoom Resizes Window" turned On and Off, as far as I can tell.)

    Finally I found a solution !!!
    All you have to do is:
    1.- Be sure that Photoshop is not running.
    2.- Find Photoshop CC App.
    3.- Right click on it
    4.- Look for the option box -Ope in LOW RESOLUTION-
    5.- Checkmark it.
    ... Done !!!!

    Just few minutes ago, Chris Cox, a moderator from this forum, removes an invitation that I made to all persons sharing this conflict. His reason for the removal: "you already posted this once". My reasons for post this more than once: "I'm reminding, and asking to each and everyone involved to make and extra push to solve this problem that is affecting thousands of Photoshop users with a Retina Display and a Thunderbolt monitor.
