Serial Monitor Forever Minimized (Win7 64 Due) [SOLVED]

Development Tools IDE 1.x
1

Hey all,

I've been using my Due on windows 7 (64 bit) for a few weeks now without problem.

Yesterday, I installed a serial port splitter and used it to monitor some serial communication between the Due and openFrameworks. Everything was working fine then, but today, my serial monitor in the arduino IDE won't properly open. It stays minimized in taskbar, and there doesn't seem to be anything I can do about it. (See attached screenshot.)

I also got some opaque launch4j errors a couple of times on loading the Arduino IDE (though they seem to have stopped since the most recent reinstall of the IDE).

I've scoured the forums/google and tried the following solutions with no luck...
Restarted arduino IDE
Disconnected/reconnected arduino
Restarted computer
Reinstalled arduino IDE
Disabled windows aero effects
Uninstalled serial port splitter
Disabled bluetooth
Turned off all wireless communication
Reinstalled java
Overridden the Arduino/java folder with my runtime java folder

If anyone has a clue as to what I'm doing wrong, I'd love to hear it. I'm pulling my hair out.

Click the serial monitor and press Win key+Left arrow. Does that solves the issue?

Or Shift+Right click the Window thumbnail in the taskbar, then click maximize or restore, or move (and then use the cursor keys).

Firstly, solved - thanks!

Secondly, this may be the most embarrassing "error" that I've had in recent memory. I can't believe I didn't put it together that I had been on dual monitors yesterday and a single monitor today...
