Can I reset the size of the Finder window

The Community seems to think all you have to do is open a finder window and drag it to a larger size. That might work with your computer but my finder window ALWAYS reverts to its original tiny size.

Any suggestions?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Thank you for this information. I actually opened up finder and dragged the window to re-size while holding down on the option key then chose relaunch, that also did the trick, but if this happens again, ill try your method. I remember back when you could set the finder size with finder preferences.

Thank You.
