Do you have your window manager running? I guess it should be Openbox under lxqt.

I would try:

Code: [Select]
sudo -i
pacman -Syy
pacman -S openbox
exit

EDIT: Found the fix in this thread https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/topic,3441.msg22285.html#

It happens if you launch 'Openbox Settings' apparently.

The Fix
Code: [Select]
rm ~/.config/openbox/rc.xml



I am having the same issue.  I belive this was working origially but recently I have not been able to  do any windo management from the windows themselves.  Everything must be done in the task bar.

Here's a video showing the issue
