    Windows opens off screen

    I was also facing such kind of issue i try to start the program and then right click on the taskbar and then select move button. Now move the mouse pointer to the middle of the screen. Over here use the ARROW keys on the keyboard to move the program window to a viewable area on the screen and press enter. If you want you can resize the window if necessary.

    Windows opens off screen

    I have try to follow the above steps but still not able to solve this problem is there any other way to fix Windows opens off screen because i have really got frustrated with this issue and can't work till the issue is being fixed. The only option left out with me is to reinstall my operating system which i don't think a valuable solution for it.
