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.

I just did it by opening up a docked window from View in normal view mode. It went to the top but then I more quickly dragged the title bar to the right side and the new docked window stuck there. I closed out the original normal view screen and am now using the docked window on the side. I hope it lasts!

Nothing is working for me, no manner of dragging does it
Hi, this is the second time I've had this problem, and I don't remember how I fixed it, but dragging it to the side does not help, since the window does not respond to the mouse like it does in Word. I have dock to desktop checked in both properties, and in the view tab, but for some reason, it has decided to be on top today. Yesterday, it was fine. I don't think clearing the cache is a good idea. I routinely delete my temp files anyway.
Does anyone have any other ideas? Thanks.
