VPX: Missing main window on startup

Hmmm... Previously, I have had a situation where VPX opens and I'm missing the title bar or the top of the video window. I have been able to drag the view upward or restore a window template to get back in business.

Today is more severe: When I open the program (whether new or previous file), I'm seeing only the Program View Monitor and the Import/Effects/Templates window. In other words, no Project (Track/Arrangement) main window at all. So, I can't access any toolbars, the workspace templates, or anything else to be able to open or create a new session.

I'm a bit stymied. Any ideas?

Ok, so here's how I solved it.

I have been using 2 monitors. I still don't understand what caused the problem.

However, changing Windows Display Setting under Multiple Displays from "Extend these displays" to "Show Only One" caused the main project window to reappear on the missing main monitor. The others were then missing. But, as I turned them off, re-extended the 2nd display, and turned them back on, they reappeared. I've recalled my Window Arrangement Default, and now I'm good.

Maybe this will help someone else sometime.
