After disconnecting monitor, Chrome window inaccessible

Project Member Reported by rpop@chromium.org, Apr 4 2017

Issue description

Chrome Version       : 57.0.2987.133
OS Version: 10.0

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Connect external monitor to laptop, drag one of several Chrome windows onto that monitor
2. Disconnect monitor

What is the expected result?
All windows repositioned onto laptop screen

What happens instead of that?
The window formerly on the monitor doesn't reposition. I can minimize it, then if I click the taskbar icon it appears to reopen somewhere off screen.

The only workaround I found is to right click the taskbar icon -> maximize.

I've been seeing this for about a week, which coincides with M57, so reporting it even though I thought this behavior was managed by Windows.

Interesting. Does this also repro with other applications?

It doesn't repro with Edge or the SnipIt tool. 

With chrome, the repro might involve maximizing the window on the external monitor as step 1.5.
