Save as fills my screen

Community Beginner ,
May 21, 2020 May 21, 2020

When I do a Save As, the save screen fills the normal area on my screen. I can't make it smaller. This is a problem to me as I can no longer see the document that I am saving, or any other references that I might be using to decide where to save the file to. How do I get control of this so I can make it smaller?

Hi,

 

Looks like you've resized that manually previously and that size is getting retained for you.

 

Please resize this Window using the Bottom right corner and reduce the size. From next launch onwards, this dialog will come in the reduced size itself.

 

Let me know if that helps

The problem is those double headed arrows that change the size of the box. They are there, I can see them and and can click them, but they don't move the box. it is locked at full screen.

You will also notice that at the top right, there is only a red boxed cross button for close. Where are the maximise and minimise buttons?

>>>>>>>>>>

Actually, I just fixed it myself. The Adobe button in the top left has an option "Restore". The maximise button up there, top left, makes it full screen, while the restore button pulls it back.

View as below. I am saving a PDF file and the save box has completely filled the screen. I cannot make it smaller. I do see the window's edge controls (arrows to change size), but they don't work. The only option at top right is close.

thank you - I've had this problem for a while - and just received an ultra-wide monitor instead of two individual ones so it really was a pain. THANK YOU for helping me solve this. 🙂

Thanks! Very useful. This was driving me crazy! What a nasty bug that is... I have no idea how it got activated and the solution was very criptic
