is the Workbook Protected? One of the options in Protect Workbook prevents you from changing the window size of the workbook and disables moving it as well

I'm assuming you have scrolled over the top corner of it and tried to click Maximize?  You can also double click the top of the tile to maximze

Does it save that view if you completely close Excel and re-open the file?  I have too much stuff open to try this.  I come across a similar bug when I run super heavy macros and have multiple files open.  It switches to cascaded mode and prevents me from doing much of anything even after the macro is done

yes. but its ONLY for this spreadsheet. all my other spreadsheets are fine. I even did a reboot.

is the Workbook Protected? One of the options in Protect Workbook prevents you from changing the window size of the workbook and disables moving it as well
