Visual Studio Freezing/TFS Window Might be off screen

Question

I am using Visual Studio 2005 with Team Foundation Server.

When I right click a file under the source control and choose "compare" VS appears to freeze until I hit escape. My guess is that the window that is supposed to be popping up is somewhere I can't get to. I tried minimizing all the windows that I can and it is nowhere to be found.

Answer 1

Try the keyboard shortcut to get to the window's main menu () then hit 'M' for move and hit an arrow key to attach the window to the mouse - then at the next move of the mouse it should jump to it.

Experiment with a window you can see first.
