The dialogue box "remembers" its size (and position) from when it was last closed.

Try this:

1. open the dialogue
2. right click close to the red close button in the upper right corner
3. click Restore
4. chose a file
5. click Open

I have windows 10 and the red close button does not give the restore option. I seems to get a greyed out restore option outside of Matlab, but not via the dialog box Isn't there something in Matlab that will do it?

AHA! Restore option cam when I clicked on the Select File to Open in the upper LEFT corner. Maybe that will fix it. Thanks

"close to the red close button" I intended to say click a bit to the right of the close button, not the close button itself. I could have been clearer.

As a matter of fact, right clicking anywhere on the area below, but not the red close button, opens the context menu (on Win7).
