When I go to save a doc, the save screen is wider than my desktop and I have to scroll right and left to see anything. When I go to drag the corners smaller, it only goes bigger...?? Help!
MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 12.0

Old issue, new issue, what changed?
All applications or one in particular (?)...try a different app and compare your results.
third party—contact the developer for any updates.
Have you tried rebooting?
For anomalies like these...
To trouble shoot further you can:
—Try a SafeBoot https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262
Takes noticeable longer to get to the login screen, does a 5 minute disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, including dynamic loader cache, etc.
Login and test. Reboot as normal and test. Caches get rebuilt automatically.
In Safe mode third party system modifications and system accelerations are disabled, it removes malware, etc hampering smooth operation, however a reboot will put it back to normal mode.
This test will tell you if third party interference; extensions etc are not loaded in safe boot mode.
—Test issue in another user (or guest user) account https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/set-up-other-users-on-your-mac-mtusr001/mac
This will tell you if it a universal issue or isolated to your user/admin account.
Uninstall all third party apps that are Cleaners/Optimizers/VPN/Anti-Virus
all known to cause issues on the macOS
Many time the simplest and most straight forward resolve is to reinstall the macOS on top of your existing macOS from Recovery—https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204904
User data is preserved in this operation. You are not erasing anthing only refreshing the macOS.
Always advised to have a backup of your user data.

My default window size on save screen is huge. How do I change?
