How do I fix the problem?

Running Win 10.0.18362 on Dell Inspiron 11-3147

Apparently Sigil is opening a child window which does not become visible or on top.
Do you have a 2nd monitor that's turned off?

Try pressing Ctrl+space, if a control menu, pops press 'M' and then use the arrow keys to move the ME/GT window into view.

Else, close Sigil, copy the sigil.ini file somewhere safe, then remove the relevant window geometry settings with a text editor.

@KH, DD - suggestion, move all the window geometry settings into a separate ini/json file that can nuked with impunity when this sort of thing happens.
