Maximizing and minimizing the active window
1 To make the Windows Explorer window the active window,
click the Windows Explorer button on the taskbar.
Windows 98 highlights the title bar to show that Windows
Explorer is the active window. If you are using the Cascade
option, Windows Explorer is displayed on top of the other win
dows.
|^J 2 Click the Minimize button at the top right of the Explorer win
dow.
Explorer disappears from the desktop. However, it is still open,
as you can see from the taskbar.
HINT: Minimizing program windows is a good way to clean
up the desktop without actually closing programs.
3 Click the Maximize button at the top right of the Paint
window.
The Paint window expands to the full size of the screen, except
for the taskbar. Notice that the Maximize button has changed.
It is now called the Restore button.
HINT: Maximizing a program is a good way to work when you
are only using one program and do not want any distractions
on the screen.
