    right click on your desktop. the display properties window wil appear, click on the appearnace tab, then click on the 'effects' button. In there you will see a box for 'large icons' tick it, click on OK, then apply and ok . the window should close and your icons should now be big..

    so what you are asking is when you click on an icon and the program opens up in a window, how do you get the window to open full screen everytime?

    when the window opens put your screen cursor at one of the bottom corners of the window and drag the box diagonally it should stay at that size thr next time you open that particular window just do the same for any window that is not big enough.
