DivX Player - offscreen, can't drag it back to the desktop

    Ok, this is driving me mad. I'm not sure if this is the right forum but anyway.

    I have DivX Player and was playing videos fine but it wasn't in fullscreen. I moved it a bit to see another window behind it. The video stopped and I tried to go back to the DivX window but it was offscreen and no part of it was showing on the desktop.

    I had this problem before and moving the taskbar, I could see a small piece of the DivX player and moved it back onto the desktop. I can change to fullscreen no problem but can't get the usual window to move onto the desktop at all.

    I tried reinstalling, even changing the DivX screen size settings in the registry and setting it to 4000x4000. I tried changing the screen resolution to the maximum but it still isn't showing.

    It's really hard to even search for this problem on the internet. Anyone have any ideas?

    alt+enter should make it fullscreen

    Yep, full-screen is fine. I want to be able to have the smaller version I can have open when on the internet or doing other things on the computer.

    If possible, up your screen resolution so more of the desktop is visible, move the windows, then change res back.

    Yep, tried that already. Put it to the maximum but it's still off the screen.

    Does anyone know if there's any way to reset the settings to default? I tried looking for configuration files or registry settings for DivX Player but couldn't find any.

    Right click on the taskbar and select one of 'Cascade Windows',
    'Tile Windows Horizontally','Tile Windows Vertically' ?

    Cheers! That looks like it should work. I'll try it out later when I get home from work.

    Yeah, Bk4rhl, I tried that too, it just stays offscreen.
