Program windows flying to the edge of screen - how to turn off

How do I stop the behavior of a program (app) window jumping to the display's edges. I just upgraded my macbook pro to Sonoma 14.2.1 and when I click outside a window, all the open windows disappear from center screen and fly to the edge of my display. I found this question answered but it was about using the track pad not a mouse. Show desktop is not selected. Thanks.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 14.2

Open System Settings, then click on "Desktop and Dock" and set “Click on the wallpaper to display the desktop" to “Only in Stage Manager”.
