  1. Dragging windows between dual monitors


    PLEASE NOTE that this problem only began a few weeks ago and NO HARDWARE or SOFTWARE CHANGES were made to the system.Until recently, when I have a window maximized, I could grab it by the title bar and drag it across to the other display. When I did it, the application window would automatically change to "windowed" mode and then after moving it to the new screen, I could "push" the title bar against the top of the screen and it would automatically maximize the window.A few weeks ago, this stopped. I could no longer grab the title bar and move a maximized window. I would have to manually do

    :)
