Bing Speech Recognition Control Moves To Desktop 2 And Cant Be Moved

My Bing speech recognition control sometimes moves to the second desktop and I can not move it from there. I am right clicking on the window for the option but it does not appear once the control is on the second desktop. I can move all other controls as normal. Is this a bug?

Need Older Copy Of ARC
