Mendeley stuck on full screen

Question

I am using Mendeley Desktop v 1.19.1 on my macOS High Sierra v 10.13.4. Mendeley is stuck on full screen. It opens in that way and I cannot exit full screen or move it around. The “File” menu at the top does not disappear and is stuck on top of the close and minimize button, as in the picture below. I tried uninstalling this and reinstalling and still no change.

This problem is only with Mendeley.

I had this too and fixed it by quitting the app, deleting the Mendeley preferences files in the preferences folder, then re-opening Mendeley.

As soon as you open the preferences menu of the application, the windows is back to normal.

I had the same problem. I reset Mendeley and everything works fine.

Use Help→Reset Mendeley Desktop.
