It's an awful feature to have on by default though. Whenever I'm in Windows, I can't seem to drag a window anywhere without Windows just deciding that I actually want to anchor it on the side and re-size it. NO! I just want to move the window a little. Jeez! There's probably a way to turn it off, but why on earth is that the default behavior? Fortunately I only use windows once a month or so, so I haven't been bothered to figure out how to disable this.

Also, I seem to recall if you "shake" a window while dragging it, it does something else unexpected. Great, now I need to have a surgeon's hands just to move my window around. Can you just let me drag my window in peace, Microsoft?

Yes I feel your pain in that one. There’s a way to turn this off in the settings... one of the first things I do with any new Windows setup.

Another major peeve of mine: Windows lets you drag a window so that its top edge goes outside the bounds of your display. It should stop when the top edge “bumps into” the upper bound of the display: I prefer to have most windows full-height, and I have to be extremely finicky and careful when dragging documents around in Windows. On Mac this is not an issue: I can “slide” full-height windows from side to side by dragging them slightly upwards as I drag them horizontally.
