Windows automatically extending beyond the screen

I have a MacBook Air, and for months my windows have automatically extended beyond my screen. If I move a window anywhere near the edge of the screen, it extends a bit further each second and won't stop. I have updated my Mac and turned off all the automatic window-resizing toggles in System Settings, but it still happens. Any advice on how to turn this off would be amazing because it is so annoying!
