It should, but it isn't...

@JoshDreamland any chance you could fix this one if i gave you one big virtual hug?

[JoshDreamland]

I don't use Windows, so I'd basically have to eyeball it, which I'm happy to do if I have guinea pigs. Otherwise, you should ask Robert.

@RobertBColton when you're less busy, any chance you could take a look at this? thanks!

Use the function, not the global game settings. There's tons of game settings that haven't been implemented, I was going to rework that at some point.

[JoshDreamland]

Wow, why is the global game setting not just using the function? Is it taken into account while setting up the window?

[RobertBColton]

Nevermind, there is no actual function, the setting does work but he's right that the maximize button is for some reason disabled. It's probably the window style that's being set.

Edit: Can confirm in GMS 1.4 that the setting should allow the maximized button.

Edit 2: The setting is really hard to find because we name it 3 different things including allowResize, isSizable, allowWindowResize, and we also have an unused variable resizable.

Anyway, isSizable does set the maximize box style too so I don't know why it does appear:

enigma-dev/ENIGMAsystem/SHELL/Platforms/Win32/WINDOWSwindow.cpp

Line 57 in 83bffa1

newlong |= WS_SIZEBOX | WS_MAXIMIZEBOX;

putting #1083 and #1084 as they are all related

Closing in favor of #1549 which better describes in detail the issues mentioned here.
