Hello,

I saw that the search screen doesn't maximize full.

See image :

Checked with 32 Bit also same problem.

I have tested it on a Windows 10 64 Bit system.

Hmm, That happens for me with most (every) window that I drag to the edges in Windows 10 - if I close the program and open it again the window has shrunk - but in my case 2 or 3 pixels in the left side and the bottom, not in the right side as yours.

Just another example of how buggy the UI is in Windows 10!

What you are describing is something, that has been there ever since they introduced the Aero Snap in Win7. It's been discussed here before.

jslegers's issue seems to be new. I couldn't reproduce it with other modal TC windows nor in any other application.

The interesting thing is, that it works correctly, when the Taskbar is at the left/right side, not at the bottom of the screen. Maybe it's related to this:

...
18.10.13 Fixed: Search dialog: Use better method from forum user "MarcinW" to show dialog maximized without overlapping task bar on Windows 8 (32/64)

Thanks, seems to be a Windows 10 bug: I set a height parameter in reply to WM_GETMINMAXINFO to limit the maximum height when the window is maximized with no results. I leave the width unchanged (0, meaning unlimited). Apparently the parameter is wrong. After setting the max width to 100000 instead of 0, the window gets maximized to the full screen width.

Maybe, but I have disabled the snap feature, so maybe not...

And I don't have that problem in Windows 7 and 8.1

Please try with beta 13, I have set the maximum width to 100000 now.
