If you can't move the chain around the bar it is too tight.Back off the tension.Put on some gloves and see if it will move. If it was so loose that it came off the driver links could have been damaged and you will need to replace the chain because the drivers have burs on the side of them and are to wide to slide in the grove of the bar
It is possible there is a micro switch in the chain brake handle, grab the hand guar and pull it fully back to the top handle, it should click when the brake has dissengaged, now try again.
If the saw was at speed when the chain came off there are probably burrs on the chain drive links (the part that goes in the bar). They often cause binding and in extreme case may cause the chain to ride up and off the bar when operated. Use a file on the drive link flats to remove all burrs.

Look from the side of the saw the motor/engine to left and the bar nose to the right. The thinnest part of the chain (sharpened edge) on the top of the bar is to the right.
