Every time I bring Photoshop, Ilustrator or InDesign to the foreground, the menus move to the centre of the screen and I have to reset the workspace. I only use these three Adobe apps, so don't know if it happens on others too. At work, I'm using two Samsung 32" monitors set to 3480x2160 resolutions. At home I have one of the same monitors plus an old small one. This happens at work and at home. I have the same mac mini M1 at home and at work. I'm using OS X 13.4.1 at work and OS X 12 something at home.

I am using Photoshop 24.5, Illustrator 27.6.1 and InDesign 18.3 at work.

I tried deleting the preferences in Photoshop, and it seemed to work, but after a day or so it was back to its usual behaviour.

Hi @RP&S SS

I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble. What version number of Photoshop are you using?

This might be obvious, but just in case, have you tried resetting the preferences yet? There are a few ways to do it, but the most thorough method is to do it manually. Here's how:

Thanks for the patience!
