Windows launching off screen

Clear instructions. Easy to follow. Sorry this didn't help. Thanks for your feedback. I actually asked this same question subject a different way using Google and obtained the answer. This is the tablet mode feature of Windows This should not be easily "on" for windows 10 default but I did find tablet mode was turned on after the windows update patch was applied two times ago. So something in the update turned on tablet mode for which I had no knowledge of using a desktop computer.

So for those out there with this off screen window problem, go to windows 10 settings, system, tablet mode. Turn off tablet mode and this will stop the off screen problem. Of course, I had to find this myself, without help from Microsoft Hope this helps others and takes so much less time for them finding a resolution than all the stress of this happening day after day, over and over.

Well this morning the same issue is back. So Tablet mode set to off has not remedied the problem. File Explorer and program windows swing up and off the screen. Some cannot be moved. This is very frustrating. Everything is NOT about using tablets and mobile devices!!!

A great number of people, businesses, use desktop computers and this sort of thing certainly hinders and impedes productivity and efficiency!!! Dont know why this has to occur and as much as I've seen of this googling for an answer, I guess Microsoft just doesnt care other than to say use the "move" feature. This would be fine if you did it once and it was fixed. But hey, we dont matter out here, we're stuck with what we get Sounds like they are going to another monitor.

MiniTool Solution gives you some simple methods in this post. Sometimes if you start an application or open a window can run properly , you may find the window is off the screen. Of course, it is possible that you accidentally moved a window off your screen — in this case, it is difficult to drag it back. In addition, the window off screen problem can happen when you are using a dual screen. It is common for laptops that your secondary monitor is sometimes hooked up and sometimes not.

Have a need to use a triple monitor setup for your desktop or laptop?
