Hi All,

I don't know how this happened, but since I reinstalled Media Center after a drive reformat, the "non-full-screen" window is WAY off the screen and I can't get it back.

With most windows apps, you can bring up the window menu (using alt-spacebar) and hit M for Move and use the arrow keys to bring it back into view, but Media Center doesn't have a Move item to choose, only Restore, Minimize and Maximize.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'll even dive into the registry if I have to!

cheers,

Bill

Right-click on the task bar and try the following menu commands:

Cascade windows
Tile Windows Horizontally
Tile Windows Vertically

Cascade windows should do the job

This is happening to me as well.  And Cascade Windows (or Tile Horizontally or Tile Vertically) didn't work.  I can only see the Media Center window when it is maximized to the full window.  Any other suggestions?

Oh...I'm having the same problem. I posted the bug...hopefully they will fix it.

MC seemed to be hung in the taskbar so I ended the app in task manager.  Then when I restarted, the window was in the "non-full screen".  That does't really explain anything, but now I have the "non-full screen" window.

hehe, I tried killing it in Task Manager, but no dice for me

Hey, thanks for replying, I appreciate it!
