Moving a window

 

Only resizable windows (or variable sized) can be moved. A maximized window will be the only thing visible on your screen, and a minimized window will only show up as a button on the taskbar. But a variable sized window can be located anywhere on the screen. You do this by clicking and dragging the title bar of the window.

 

Every window has a blue bar across the top with the title of the page or document running in that window (You should know that although blue is the standard color, it is possible to change it to any color. Most likely, your top bar will be blue.). This blue bar across the top is called the Title Bar.

 

HOW TO DO IT

 

Move the pointer to the title bar

Click and drag the title bar to any position you desire. As you do so an outline of the resized window will appear on the screen.

Release the button when the window is in the position that you wish

 

I relocated my window and it disappeared!

One brief warning is in order here. It is possible to move a window so that it is almost completely out of view. If this happens, it may seem like the window magically disappeared. If this ever happens to you, you can always go down to the taskbar, use your right-click button and maximize the window.
