Vista Home Premium - Program window boxes disappearing

[Guest]

Sometimes when i open programs which don t use full screen they disappear to
the top left hand corner of the screen and i can t retrieve them. The only
way i ve found to get them back is to go full screen. But on things like the
calculator i can t go full screen so i can t use it. Please help.

Right click on the Taskbar icon for the program, click Move and use the keyboard
arrow keys to move the window.

suggestions would be welcomed mate.

You mean you can't right click on the program's ICON (the button with the
program's name on it) on the Windows Taskbar (that black line across the bottom
of your screen), select Move (make sure the Restore option at the top of the box
IS grayed out), and then use the keyboard's ARROW KEYS to move the program's
window. You do not have to click on anything on the program's window. When you
are finished moving, click the mouse to release it.

Maybe you could temporarily set your screen resolution as high as it will
possibly go to see if you can find it. And just keep pressing those arrow keys.
