I'm on Ubuntu 16.04.1 at the moment, and system windows like the Files window, Terminal or System Software open behind the Unity launcher, which means they are partially hidden behind it. I can move them with Alt+F7, but I'd like a more permanent solution to this problem.

Open CompizConfig Settings Manager and enable "Place Windows" under "Window Management". This should solve the problem.
