Is My.Settings.Full defined as a Boolean?

At the top of your code, before the Class statement, and above any Iport statements, place the lines:

Option Explicit On
Option Strict On

then re-check your code for any errors (wiggly blue underline on problem lines.

You might also want to place a BreakPoint on the If statement and single-step through to see if it's doing what you want it to do,

Could you also post the code that causes the form to open full or not?

Where are you placing the code to size the window and how are you doing it?

        If My.Settings.Full = True Then
            My.Settings.Full = False
            My.Settings.Save()
        Else
            My.Settings.Full = True
            My.Settings.Save()
        End If
        Me.Refresh()
    End Sub

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

        If My.Settings.Full = True Then
            Me.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.CenterScreen
            Me.FormBorderStyle = Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.None
            Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized
        Else
            Me.FormBorderStyle = Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.Sizable
            Me.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.Manual
            Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal
        End If
    End Sub
End Class

Hey dude, its work properly, but when i see on property-setting there still same value, no changes occure,, whats that??

That's because it's being written in the .config file that's being created alongside your executable.

If you go to where your executable is, you should find a file called
{yourexecutablename}.exe.config

That is where your settings are being stored for the application.

The settings tab is for setting up those settings but doesn't change as the setting in the .config change.

Just to expand a bit on what CharlieMay said....

If you make a ListBox, then in Properties, you type some lines into the Items (Collection) property, when you run the program, those lines will show up in the ListBox, You can change them in the program, but when you go to run it again, the original lines you put in are still there.

Good to hear your program is working. It's working as it should.

If the scope of the setting is Application you can't affect it, because it read-only.
