Contents Pane docks on right side

Sheri_Wysong — Tue, 14 Oct 2025 19:13:23 GMT

Was working along on a project, and suddenly the Contents Pane moved to right side and I cannot for the life of me figure out what I did to move it or how to move it back. I can move it back to the left, but when I dock it, it goes back to the right. HELP!

On the Contents Pane, right-click just right of the word, Contents, and select Dock. It "should" dock back to the left side.

Thanks, but it went back to the right.

Well that's strange. Whenever I see wonky behavior in ArcGIS Pro, I recommend a soft reset of ArcGIS Pro. You can find the steps to perform this here - How To: Perform an ArcGIS pro Soft Reset

Thank you for that info. Luckily I did not have to do that, but I'll keep it mind if needed.
