Help, my window has disappeared

Handy tip that James pointed out the other day - my Virtual PC machine console window keeps disappearing (perhaps thinking that I have an external monitor plugged in). You can see it on the task bar, but clicking on it doesn't bring it to the top of the pile on the desktop, so, how do you get it back on your main screen?

In the following order:

  • alt
  • space
  • m
  • any arrow key
  • move the mouse

Hey presto, the window snaps to under your mouse cursor and you can drop it wherever you like. Very handy and useful to remember.
