Rhino 8 kinda disappeared & restore window unavailable

Rhino 8, 8.4.24016.19001. Had it open a while, closed Rhino 7 (which was grouped in the same taskbar icon as Rhino 8), then the Rhino 8 window disappeared with the floating “containers” (correct word?) floating on the desktop.

But it’s possible that the window actually ended up hypershrunk at the upper left corner of the desktop and I missed it, because I opened a new instance of Rhino 8 and saw the window appear as such:

Right click, “Restore” was grayed out, so I chose Maximize.

What happened here?

Do you have a way to reliably reproduce this behavior?

Not yet. I can say it happened after a few hours of working in R7 and Windows sleep cycles.
