Why doesn't it open larger? It's compressed and I have to click on the edge
of the window to get it to expand. Image

You can't drag the bottom to enlarge it?

Per my post, yes. But it reverts after the window is closed. I don't have the
wherewithall to properly appreciate having to enlarge the window each time.
At one time the window stayed how it was left the previous time.

If there's a way to keep it enlarged I'd appreciate it.

I don't have Finale 27, but you could try Save Preferences from the File menu if it's still there. I think stuff like that might be stored in the Windows registry, but I don't know why it isn't sticking. Hopefully someone else here has 27 and can report.

This doesn't help you, but on the Mac version it stays expanded, even after closing Finale and reopening.

For me it opens the size it did in the past, and keeps the new size when changed
