DOM menu, Open Trade Window does nothing

I am sim trading from the DOM. I like to have the associated Trade Window on another screen, not attached to the DOM. From the DOM, if I choose, Trade --> Open Trade Window for Chart, nothing appears. I can successfully attach the trade window, but when I uncheck the attach menu item, the trade window disappears (i.e., does not appear as a detached trade window anywhere on any monitor).

I suspect it may have to do with copying my .cht files to my work machine. The DOMs were created on my home desktop where I have a very large screen and a 2nd monitor. At work, where this issue is occurring, I use a laptop with two normal- to small-sized monitors attached to the dock. My hunch is the Trade Window is somewhere off screen, and if that is true, do you have any ideas how I might find it and get it back onto one of the monitors?

Thanks in advance,
