Windows - Move App From Non Existent Monitor

Issue:

My laptop was linked to a second monitor the last time I used RSA SecureID Token application. I used the program on the second monitor, shut it, and opened it again on the laptop without the second display while I was out of the house. The application doesn't show up on the desktop, even if it is displayed in the taskbar.

Although the app can show up there if I reconnect the second monitor at home, I'm looking for a way to make it work in situations where I forget to move the app before leaving the house.

So, I need to transfer it back to the laptop.

This issue usually occurs with following applications: Postman, RSA SecureID Token.

Cause:

RSA was opening up minimized.

Solution:

Open Task Manager

click on Process tab.

Locate RSA SecureID Software Token Client

Expand it to see Windows - RSA SecureID Token

Right click on it and click on Maximize.
