I don’t think it’s been actively developed for a while, so maybe a Windows 7 update broke it at some point.The calculator is one of the most important apps for every computer and mobile user. It was great while it worked, but for maybe a couple of years, it hasn’t been working very reliably (in Windows 7 SP1 圆4).
Since at least the Windows XP days, I’ve used a little utility called AutoSizer that you could program to automatically maximize or resize and reposition different classes of windows (or different windows with a given string of text in their titles) *exactly* the way you wanted every time you opened them. I’ve only used Windows’ built-in calculator a handful of times in the past 10 or more years, so I don’t really know what it can do anymore.īut this business about the Windows 10 Calculator loading too big by default reminds me of a little gripe I have. If I need to do something more elaborate, I tend to use LibreOffice Calc. When I need to do a quick-and-dirty calculation and/or conversion, it’s usually when I’m in my browser, so I just use Google search because it’s faster to get to. The article let me know not to waste my time trying to figure it out. I found the article necessarily useful because the resizing restriction was disconcerting and I immediately went about figuring out what was going on. Why would anyone need to do something that he didn’t see a need for? How ridiculous! “Why would anyone need to work with two programs at the same time”, he said. An engineer expressed the opinion that it was ridiculous.
I remember when when the first windows operating interface came out. Or is it your contention that the Windows interface with it’s ability to open two or more applications simultaneously, place them where the user finds most useful, and size them according, is just a stupid idea. And no, I cannot simply download and install a third party app. If for no other reason than that I fine it aesthetically uncomfortable, there is no good reason that this particular app should be forced to a size that I am not comfortable with.
(You probably and immediately thought, “No one needs that many window open.” But that isn’t your decision.) I see just fine and have no need for a calculator with a font that is ten times the size of every other application on the screen. I do CADD and require seven or more windows open at one time do to the research and multiple data sources I need.
