In the context of a computer user interface manual, what word would you use to complete this sentence:
Drag the handle at the bottom-right corner to enlarge or __ the window.
To me, "shrink", "diminish", and "reduce" all feel wrong in this context. Is there a better word? (Or would one of those work if I changed the word "enlarge" to something else?)

There's nothing wrong with using "shrink" as an antonym for "enlarge" in this context. If "enlarge" bothers you, you might try pairing "shrink" with "expand".
