Adobe Pro 2023 minimizes to the lower task bar but does not maximize
I installed Adobe Pro 2023 on a Windows 10 Pro 64 bit computer and for some reason when I try to open anything Adobe it minimizes to the lower task bar and does not let you maximize it to a full screen. If I do an ALT TAB I can see them open for a brief moment but it does not let me open or maximize the screen

Move or size is not available. Neither is maximize. I would have tried that. the only thing with the keyboard that works is ALT TAB and it just shows the multiple sessions of Adobe that I have open but it does not let me do anything with them. It is very strange.
With alt-tab, when you end on it, making the app active; alt-space, does the menu pop-up that includes restore, move, resize, etc?
Once selected, arrow key to have the app attach to the mouse ....
See if that gets you further.

The task bar shows the recent files opened and if you right click on it and select open with Adobe Acrobat it does nothing and disappears.
When you alt-tab the file temporarily opens up but alt-space does nothing
alt-space works unless your RDP session is not in full screen mode.
The prior suggestion has always worked as well, when the application is active, (alt-tab and selected) hover over the application in the task bar, when it displays the options, right click on the listed running process and it should give you the same application window controls that lets you move, it...you may have to do it blind, i.e. arrow down, hit enter. then a left/right arrow on the keyboard and the window should attach....
Looking back, I think this was the missing part, arrow down, enter to select move.....
Is move or size available? First try the move and using keyboard arrow keys to get the app attached to the mouse. See if the issue is that the maximize expands it into a position where you can not see it?
