Alt+tab should show you the open windows. When you tab to the Legacy open window then do as Gene suggested.

I have never found an icon for the off screen window in the taskbar. There is just the Legacy icon. When I click on it and chose close the window the program terminates.

        I have two monitors. With Legacy 8 when a new window was
        opened it often was partially off either screen - but I could
        locate it and move it. With Legacy 9 it is often off both
        screens and cannot be located. Since Legacy has a window open
        I can't do anything. The program is basically locked and I
        have to close the Legacy window - not a proper close.

        Does anyone know a way to tell Legacy where to open a window?
        Since no other program does this I have to think it is Legacy.
        Maybe there is a setting I'm missing?

    It is not Legacy. It is windows.  Windows remembers where a window
    was when the program closes and tries to put it back there.
    You may have had a window open off screen when you closed Legacy
    and windows put it back there

    Here's one way to "rescue" such an off-screen window and bring it
    back onto the active monitor:

        Make the off-screen window the active window by clicking on
    its icon in the Windows Taskbar.
        Press Alt+Space, and then press the M key. ...
        Press any arrow key once.
