What’s is Borderline?

Borderline is a tiny utility program that simply moves any windows outside the screen area of your computer monitor (or monitors in a dual + monitor setup) completely within the screen area.

Why Would You Want It?

Sometimes Windows move off the screen area of your monitor. This may be for many reasons such as changing resolution of the monitor or changing from a multi-monitor setup to a single monitor. Whatever the cause it can be extremely frustrating and even worse, if the Window does not show in the Windows Taskbar area. This post on Recover Hidden & Off-screen Windows with this Simple Tip and Freeware Program ForceWindowVisible will give you more information with:

• A way of moving windows on screen using “Windows Standard Move Function” (slow and requires the window to be shown in the Taskbar)
• A small portable utility called ForceWindowsVisible

The advantage of Borderline over ForceWindowsVisible is that it is simple and quick. Also ForceWindowsVisible can cause problems if you hide or unhide windows that are not meant to be seen or not meant to be hidden by mistake (or maybe just “experimenting” )

When Borderline is run it moves al windows within the borders of the monitor screen(s) and then closes. This means you have to run it each time but has the advantage that it does not run in the background using memory and CPU.
