Running the earlier snapshots is probably the problem - they may have
had incompatible docking configs. Try selecting the 'Default View'
option from the View menu, or if that doesn't work, exit pgAdmin, delete
the following registry key and restart pgAdmin:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\pgAdmin III\frmQuery\Perspective

For the benefit of anyone else with similar issues, the following keys
have the same effect on the main form and the edit grid:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\pgAdmin III\frmMain\Perspective
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\pgAdmin III\frmEditGrid\Perspective
