How to move a window back on screen in Windows

I run into this once in a while, and usually I've resolved it by right clicking on the relevant window's taskbar item, pressing ALT and then the down arrow key to get to the window menu where move is an option.

With windows 7 and 8, right clicking on the taskbar item no longer displays that menu, nor does the ALT + down always work.  So, here's what gets you to that menu for a given hidden taskbar item: ALT + SPACE.  Pressing M will select move.  Clicking the left or right arrow keys will move the window.
