How Do I Move an Off Screen Window?

❎ One of the ways to move an off screen window - particularly useful for Windows Media Center - has changed slightly.

Viewing the System Menu
The System Menu can let you control the position and size of a window, even when initially not visible. ALT+Space will make the menu appear in some applications, CTRL+Click in the very upper left of some windows will make it appear in others. If the window is not visible, SHIFT+Right-click on the running application’s taskbar icon can also make it appear. Then clicking on “Move” will allow you to move the window, bringing it back in to view if it’s not.
