Cant use app

My Imac will not let me access an app. When i try to open that one specific app it wont show up as open until I go to "show all windows", then it pops up with a blue box around it and when I try to click onto it, the app disappears. I've uninstalled and re-installed three times and it still wont let me click onto it.

Open programs stuck on left side of screen I have an iMac running Ventura 13.4. I'm having a problem where all of my open apps are hidden off the screen on the left hand side. When I put my curser on the left side, they become visible (but small), but I am not able to open them. I can't drag them over to the screen, can't make them bigger, and can't right click on them. I'm assuming it's a setting, but I can't get to my Systems Settings because it too is stuck on the left side of the screen. I have tried rebooting, and forcing all of the apps to quit, but nothing helps. Does anyone know how to fix this? See screenshot below. Thank you!

Application Opening But Not Showing On Desktop I was working with my Application (Cricut Design Space) the other night on my Mac mini. I tried dragging it to the top of my screen to move it out of the way. I must have dragged it a little too far, it disappeared on me! Quit the app then tried to reopen. Looks like it opened but it didn't show on my desktop. Quit the application again, Uninstalled it, then Re-Installed it again. Looked like it was going to open, but it continued to do the same thing. Opens and shows on the top left but it won't actual open on the screen. I have checked to see if there were other desktops active and nothing shows up. What the heck did I do?! Another note, I have to force quit the app. Did I screw something up?

If this doesn't happen to other Apps, it would be best to contact the App developer for that specific App.
