I had to call Adobe support.
The problem is that the Version 4.0 files had been clobbered. To solve the problem, they had me rename the file folder called Version4.0 that is found under c:/documents and setting/michaelrehmus/application data/adobe/indesign/.
I renamed it ‘old’ brought ID back up and I could just see the Open box at the top of the screen. Up to the bottom of the file list box. I grabbed the lower right hand corner and it would only move sideways. When I let go, it dropped down and I could just grab onto the bottom of the top bar. Then I pulled the box to mid-screen, shut down ID, the restarted ID. The box is back on-screen.
The tech support person mentioned the ‘hidden’ issue. But since I could move a ID to Tthe other screen or reduce the size to hardly anything, that didn’t appear to be the case.
