When I open SSMS, I choose windows authentication, but the window just goes away; it doesn't say I'm not allowed.
I've accessed these db servers before, the exact same way, and it has worked. Now, the window just goes away. According to Task Manager SSMS is still running but there is no window of any size at all and I've tried more than one server; I've also logged off and back on to the relevant machine with SSMS as well.
Has anyone ever seen any behavior like this? Is there a way to "maximize" the window? Is my SSMS in need of repair?

1Have you tried right clicking on the window in Task Manager on the application tab and choosing maximize? – dsolimano Apr 16 '15 at 14:40

That works. The window had just gone off screen. – JosephDoggie Apr 16 '15 at 15:03

For a while, it looked like I'd have to ask for a re-install! – JosephDoggie Apr 16 '15 at 15:03

@dsolimano if you wish, promote your comment to an answer and I'll select it as the answer! Thanks. Simple but effective. – JosephDoggie Apr 16 '15 at 15:05

Done. Though looking at this question, I wonder if it would be better off on SuperUser . . . – dsolimano Apr 16 '15 at 15:19

Have you tried right clicking on the window in Task Manager on the application tab and choosing maximize? That usually works for me.
