I somehow got the blueprint editor stuck into fullscreen mode; it either filled the entire screen or it minimised down to the taskbar, I couldn't get any other size, and it wasn't possible to see the Asset Editor preview screen. Fortunately, the solution doesn't involve fiddling with the registry or repairing rail simulator.
There is a file under the Rail Simulator\temp folder called _BlueprintEditorRect.dat that holds the size data. It doesn't contain ASCII characters, and can't be renamed to a bin and pushed through serz to be modified. I wasn't able to see exactly what changes I had made which had caused the locked fullscreen display, so I copied the version from the most recent backup to get back to a normal sized window.
I subsequently found out that deleting the _BlueprintEditorRect.dat file and starting the blueprint editor opens up a default square window, so anyone who refuses to take backups on moral or spiritual grounds can still get out of the problem.

Use the simple World Editor tool and other advanced developer tools to create your own world, whether it's fictional or based on a real world location. You'll find help and advice here.
