I can't be the only one that runs into this, right?? You unplug your laptop from external displays, and in illustrator, photoshop....all Adobe apps, the windows and tools are all over the place and mostly off the screen. I've been running into this for a few years now (my use is occassional).

 

Is there a magical fix to this??!?!?!

Correct answer Bobby Henderson

Go to the Window menu, select "Workspace" from the drop down menu and choose "Reset (name of your active workspace)" from the flyout menu.

Hi @josephk63208407,

 

Were you able to resolve the issue by resetting the workspace as our expert Bobby suggested? Let us know if it worked for you or if you're still facing trouble. If it still gives trouble, you can also try switching to a different workspace and then back again, or even create a custom workspace that works well for your primary display setup.

 

Looking forward to your update!

Abhishek
