You could always try following the advice that was posted when the
question was first asked.

"The key combination is Ctrl+Alt+Up Arrow to return to normal view."

In other words press Control plus Alt plus the Up Arrow.

Dear Mike and Everyone,

Here is a full list of keys that someone on another website sent me for
screen orientation problems, in case it's ever useful.

"Ctrl-Alt-Up - right side up

Ctrl-Alt-Right - 90 degrees

Ctrl-Alt-Down - 180 degrees

Ctrl-Alt-Left - 270 degrees

If that doesn’t work, try Ctrl-Shift-R"

I haven't tempted fate by trying any except the first, which resolved my
problem.

Best,

Matthew
