Neither option available: I open an application and it locks the window into the upper right corner of the screen an I can not drag it to any other location on the sreen. And the green, red and yellow buttons can not be seen either they are not visible??


Under certain circumstances, this can happen when the screen resolution has been decrease. Go to System Preferences > Displays and set the resolution to the maximum/highest number.
