How to prevent windows automaticlly maxamizing?

I use Windows 7.

And my problem is that if I move a window to the top, it maximizes automatically which is annoying because this isn't what I want at all.

Also, when I increase the size of a window that automatically, it gets bigger that I intend to.

I really want to make this stop as it is incredibly annoying. So, how can I stop this from happening? Thank you.

You can do this, but you lose the ability to "break" a window on the right side of the screen to slam by-side.

If this is correct, here's how:

  1. Open the Start menu and type "automatic setting.
  2. Choose the option 'disable the automatic arrangement of windows' which opens.
  3. Check this box:

    Hello

    When you say deleted you uninstall or remove really just? If you deleted it reinstall the
    program and then properly uninstall from Control Panel - programs and features - uninstall.

  • How to prevent Windows 8 using data

    I live in the country without ADSL connection available. I bought a new computer pre-installed with windows 8 2 days and have used nearly a month of data limit in these 2 days. I am really annoyed that there is not a simple set of instructions on disabling applications that are constantly refreshing and the skydrive which is constantly synchronization and the use of our very expensive Wi - Fi we pay a motza, simply because there is no alternative. Someone else feels the same way? Can Microsoft please tell us what can and cannot be deleted so that we can enjoy our new technologies without be totally cheated by this last? Thank you.

    You can simply set your connection as a 'meter' connection so that Windows knows to not make any non-essential data transfer.  Your OneDrive will make a break no matter what synchronization process, tiles will not refresh with new data (as the news and weather auto-refresh will not more every 30 minutes and will wait for you open the app yourself) and updates will not be downloaded until you ask for them.

    Basically, anything you want.  Learn how Windows 8 or 8.1 Windows here.

    My html code for integration of Windows Media Player in Firefox but not IE 8 problems recently developed framework. The player displays correctly at the beginning, but then repositions and resizes. It seems that my width setting is to honor, but not my height adjustment. Also, autoplay = "false" (or "0") is also not honored the video starts playing after the repositioning and resizing. I tried different code for integration with the same result.

  • How to prevent users from installing new programs in Windows 7

    Hello

    I need to prevent users to install (and download) of new programs in Windows 7. I am responsible for three computers. They are not on one network (other than the internet, of course).

    I read the article "How to prevent users from installing new programs in Windows 7" but I'm not sure what choice to make when I get to the choice of Windows Installer. I'm also not quite know how to cancel that so I can install the software when I have to. I've never done this if I want to be very careful.

    Can anyone help?

    Many thanks,

    Are their accounts 'Administrator' or 'Standard' user level?

    If they are directors of the machine, and then create a new Admin account (only you know the password) and then lower their Standard user accounts. If they attempt to install programs now it should be prompted to enter the Admin password that they won't.

    User accounts - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2663817

    Also see http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/299-user-account-control-uac-change-notification-settings.html for info UAC - and adjust the required level.

    If their accounts are accounts administrator and for some reason must be a competent user, then will probably be able to undo everything you put up anyway.

  • How to prevent the automatic upgrade for Windows 10

    Press reports say that Microsoft will 'soon' 10 Windows upgrade recommended for Windows 7, leading to the automatic download and installation.  I don't want that.  I have upgraded to Windows 10, then returned to 7 (leaving an extra 100 GB of something on my hard drive).  I intend to hold out until the last minute, and perhaps later.

    So, how to prevent this scheduled automatic upgrade?  Do I have to turn off updates in Windows 7 and manually review every update?  What I read who cannot help because Microsoft does not offer as much detail about the upgrades as in the past.

    Computers were a hobby for me in 1980.  After 35 years the computers are now a tool and their maintenance is a chore.  I'll learn Windows 10 when I need to and not before.  I really don't want to use 10 at home and at work 7.  When my employer upgraded, so I will.

    Hello DilbertFan,

    For the first year that Windows 10 is out, he will be free to users with a license for Windows 7 or 8.1.

    If you don't know that you do not want to update then please copy the text following that I have which is in italics below and paste it into Notepad.

    The Publisher of the registry Windows Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Gwx]"DisableGwx"=dword:00000001

    Once you have that then go ahead and save it to your desktop and save it under "block 10" or something like that. ""

    Return to your desktop and locate this file and change the extension from .txt to .reg file

    Save it, and then double-click the file. It is to modify the registry to block the upgrade of Windows 10. I use a lot.

    Thank you
