Default Calculator window zooms off screen when opened

When I press the calculator button on my Logitech keyboard, the calculator is
opened, the word "Calculator" appears on the bottom of the screen but the
calculator window zooms somewhere off the screen (top left, I believe). I
can right click on the icon on the toolbar, click on "move", and the curser
will appear as an "X" at the top left corner of the screen and I am able,
sometimes to move it from off the screen, onto the screen. If it is off the
screen and I click on the icon and close it, I can (I think) see it zooming
back to the toolbar. What can I do to keep the window on the screen?

What's your screen resolution? Have you tried to increase it?

Hi,

After opening, hit alt+space+m, then use the arrow keys to bring it back
into view. Hit <enter> once it's back on screen.
