 From time to time, I have seen questions about "lost" windows in version 9.

I found a general solution for this and I post it as a future reference 
(for me as well)

Go to file>preferences and write your configuration file.

Close the dx4win

Go to dx4w903/save directory and rename config.dat to config_old.dat

Edit with notepad (not with word) the file config.txt

At the end of the file there are several sections with the first letter 
[W-XXX] and below something like
Height=192
Left=300
Top=300 etc

Find the window you are interesting, for example packet window is [W-PACK]
Change the value of Left and Top to zero. example
Left=0
Top=0
Save the config.txt
Open dx4win
Go to file>preferences and Load configuration file
Choose dx4903/save/config.txt (the file you just saved)
Now the window will open on the left-upper corner.
Move it where you want and write again your config.txt as a backup for 
the future.
Don't forget to open your own log again as dx4win loaded the Samplelog!

If something that you don't like happens, close to dx4win and go to 
again in dx4w903/save directory and rename config_old.dat to config.dat
