Need window maximise option about ps2exe HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi Markus, Yes, that would work, but the people using my script are basic users who just copy the EXE to the desktop and double click on it, so I’d prefer to have a maximised window built in to the executable itself.

Thanks Markus, that works perfectly. Appreciate your quick response.

A way I think that might work could be this code at the beginning of your script: $SW_HIDE = 0 # Hides the window and activates another window $SW_SHOWNORMAL = 1 # Activates and displays a window. If the window is minimized or maximized, the system restores it to its original size and position $SW_SHOWMINIMIZED = 2 # Activates the window and displays it as a minimized window $SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED = 3 # Activates the window and displays it as a maximized window $SW_MAXIMIZE = 3 # Maximizes the specified window $SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE = 4 # Displays a window in its most recent size and position. This value is similar to SW_SHOWNORMAL, except the window is not actived $SW_SHOW = 5 # Activates the window and displays it in its current size and position $SW_MINIMIZE = 6 # Minimizes the specified window and activates the next top-level window in the Z order $SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE = 7 # Displays the window as a minimized window. This value is similar to SW_SHOWMINIMIZED, except the window is not activated $SW_SHOWNA = 8 # Displays the window in its current size and position. This value is similar to SW_SHOW, except the window is not activated $SW_RESTORE = 9 # Activates and displays the window. If the window is minimized or maximized, the system restores it to its original size and position $SW_SHOWDEFAULT = 10 # Sets the show state based on the SW_ value specified in the STARTUPINFO structure $SW_FORCEMINIMIZE = 11 # Minimizes a window, even if the thread that owns the window is not responding Add-Type -Name WinAPI -Namespace Native -MemberDefinition ' // Retrieve handle for console window [DllImport("Kernel32.dll")] public static extern IntPtr GetConsoleWindow(); // send message to window handle [DllImport("user32.dll")] public static extern bool ShowWindow(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 nCmdShow); ' # Maximize window $ConsoleHandle = [Native.WinAPI]::GetConsoleWindow() [Native.WinAPI]::ShowWindow($ConsoleHandle, $SW_MAXIMIZE) | Out-Null Greetings Markus — You are receiving this because you authored the thread.
