Alt+F4 will close down the program.... perhaps it is stretched over to a 2nd monitor???

Reboot your system once via the Windows START menu.

How strange. The window border also looks wrong.
What did you do before this happened?

Try to resize the IMatch window by picking one of the borders and dragging.
If this does not help, try to restore your default workspace.

1. Save your current workspace under a name if you want to keep it. View menu > Workspaces > Save ...
2. Close IMatch.
3. Hold down <Ctrl> and start IMatch again (via desktop shortcut).
4. When the Advanced Startup Options (Recovery) (https://www.photools.com/help/imatch/#ref_startup.htm) dialog comes up, choose the option to reset the workspace.

If this does not help, repair your iMatch installation via the Windows Control Panel. See Windows help if you don't know how.

Perhaps you are in "tablet mode" by mistake?   Give this a shot:

- Press the Windows Key + A to open the Notification Bar
- Look for the Tablet Mode button (if you cannot see the Tablet Mode button, click 'Expand')
- Click the Tablet Mode button if it is highlighted.

If that doesn't work, perhaps you need to restart Task Manager (though the reboot should have already fixed this):

- Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to start Task Manager.
- When Task Manager opens, locate Desktop Windows Manager, right click it and choose End Task.

I've had to do this in the past when my task bar stops functioning after a remote desktop session.... perhaps it will help with your situation as well?
