Dialog windows opening nearly off screen?

I’ve noticed since downloading the latest Beta (27.9) using Win 11 that dialog boxes or windows which open are almost off the edge of the screen and whilst they can be moved back, it quickly gets tiresome! I’ve just opened PS 27.7 which is the latest version to check if this also has the issue and it doesn’t so it seems to be limited to beta 27.9. It wasn’t an issue with 27.8.

Has anyone else noticed this please?

    Hi ​@johnt41947401 could you please share some screenshots of what you are seeing, or a video of your workflow?

    1. Try resetting Prefs for the Beta:
    /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/ Photoshop Beta Settings (Mac Ventura)
    /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ Photoshop\ \(Beta\)\ Settings (Mac)


    C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop (Beta)\Adobe Photoshop (Beta) Settings


    Launch BETA Photoshop While Pressing The Keyboard Shortcut
    With Photoshop closed, press and hold Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and then Launch Photoshop the way you normally would.

    2. It may help if we could see your Photoshop beta System Info. Launch Photoshop beta, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.  

    Thanks,

    Cory,

    Thanks for your reply, I’ve reset preferences and also downloaded the very latest version which became available to me today, Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.9.0 20260610.m.3569 5354c19  x64 (beta, PublicBeta). It may be sorted from a couple of files I’ve just been tinkering with so let me see how things progress with a bit more use. Either way I’ll update in the next couple of days.
