How get Window Desktop Search window to open full size?

How can I get the main Window Desktop Search window to open full size?

Mine opens up "mid size" and is never large enough.

Stretch the window to the size you want it to open to, cover the whole
desktop if that how big you want it, then close it.

XP seems to forget the size and it start off smaller when it is opened.

Try holding the SHIFT key while closing the Window using the "X" in top right.

Do not "Maximize" the window, stretch it using the arrow keys as Bob stated.
