OneNote Linked Notes Window is docking on top of screen not the side

Somehow,.... I don't know how, my "linked Notes" window has started to dock on top of my screen.  It cannot be moved, sized, or otherwise adjusted.  I've checked the "dock new sidenotes to the side of the desktop" in the options.  I've seen a few other people mention this problem of locating the docking window, but so far no answers.

Thanks for the help

I had the same problem. Dragging the top bar to the right side of the screen while it's docked does the trick. It doesn't look like you are dragging it when you are doing it, but when you release it at the side of the screen, OneNote readjusts to a right-side docked position.

    Incredible.  I've struggled with this for months, haven't been able to resolve and searched forums several times. The key is that the behavior is different with dual displays and you have to move the docked window to the side of the OTHER display, not the one you're using, to undock it.  Thanks for posting Kelbyn!

    Oh man- I spent about 10 mins try to drag title bar to right side of OneNote screen until your post told me to drag to side of other (internet, etc) display- thank you so much!!!!
