Can't Get Top Menu Bar

It's been a while since I worked on 3.1. The problem is that a friend has somehow moved the window to a position that she can't see the top menubar. She can only see the bottom left half of the window and can't get to the top to drag the window to a different place on the screen. Please can someone help?

Is there a short cut key or key combination that will give you option to Move the window? Any suggestions to how she can get to the top bar to drag the window down & over???

Hi Tracey:
One thing you could try is to use alt\F4 to close window, then reopen & see if window's menu is visible again. I don't know of a move windows command, just that F7 I have use to move files, F8 to copy files, alt/esc to bring up Task Manager.

Good luck.

Tracey, press ALT, hold then press SPACEBAR. Release both keys. Then press M, then use the arrow keys to move the window.

Simpler yet ALT-SPACEBAR, then X will maximize the window!
