    Hi dlamy2,
    I'm Rodrigo and I'll help you.
    If the app is opening off-screen, select the application on the taskbar and press this combination to move the window to your current monitor: Windows + Shift + Arrow Keys (Left or Right).

    Dear Rodrigo,

    Thanks for teaching me something I was really longing for, and that chat gpt would not have found: a new versy useful hot key combination !

    I often get applications windows opening slightly or mostly offscreen, and I used shift+right-click frequently to fix that via the "move" option. Now it only opens a new instance of the window or brings it to the foreground.

    I need a way to move windows that are offscreen again. I can't see the top of the app window so there's no way to hover over the maximize button or grab the window and move it. Was this feature accidentally removed? It's really important to have that move window option since there's not much else to work around a window opening off screen.

    Absolutely insane how a critical function like SHIFT+RIGHT CLICK was broken on the most recent update. Those of us who use our machines for work and have different home/office setups know how frustrating this is.

    Microsoft, BRING BACK SHIFT + RIGHT CLICK to Maximize/Minimize on the TASK BAR.

    Shift+Right-click USED to work to get the context menu and to then "move" the program onto the screen. As of a few weeks ago, however, it seems MS made a change and now all shift-right-click does is launch the program. So now I'm stuck again with an app that likes to launch off-screen. Does anyone know the NEW way to get to the "move" context menu item? (it's currently 8/26/24)
