How can I maximize a specific window through cmd? (Windows)

Question

I just want to make a simple Notepad .bat file that would maximize a specific process window. Is that possible?

Answer 1

If you want to maximize an already-running program/window you can try with windowMode.bat using its title (or a string that the title starts with):

@echo off
call windowMode -title "Notepad" -mode maximized

Or with its process id:

@echo off
call windowMode -pid 1313 -mode maximized

Answer 2

Start takes an argument to do that.

START /MAX notepad.exe

However, if it is an already-running instance, it is outside of cmd's control.
