    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.

    other solution, hover any visible windows maximize button until this appears.

    select the half screen for the window you are viewing. and an option to load any other open program in the other half will appear. this will place in on your current monitor and you can adjust from there.

    if shift + right click no longer works here is another solution,

    hover any visible windows maximize button until this appears.

    select the half screen for the window you are viewing. and an option to load any other open program in the other half will appear. this will place in on your current monitor and you can adjust from there.
