    How do I prevent automatic window resizing?


    In Windows 7, I knew how to turn off the annoying (to me) feature that windows were automatically maximized when moved to the edge of the screen. This option no longer seems to be present in the 'ease of access' settings. Any idea if it can still be disabled?

    :)

    How do I prevent automatic sync of my pictures from my ATT Tilt when using Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1?

    Solution Found!:

    When using an HP Pavilion Elite (m9600t) desktop PC with Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit, and an HP Printer and/or HP Camera that both utilize HP Photosmart Essential 3.5 software: TO PREVENT the ATT Tilt from automatically trying to sync any
    pictures (from the Tilt to PC) and automatically bringing up the HP Photosmart Essential 3.5 software during the sync (which in my case would lock up my Tilt and PC) I used this following procedure:

    1) Go to Start and enter: msconfig

    2) In the System Configuration go to the Startup tab

    3) UNCHECK: PictureMover Application (Manufacturer: HP)

    It seems the PictureMover Application causes the HP Photosmart Essential 3.5 to be called up during any sync of my ATT Tilt, therefore, by unchecking it in Startup, I can now sync my ATT Tilt without the HP Photosmart software automatically trying to transfer
    pictures and then locking up my Tilt and PC. (NOTE: I could not find any adjustments in Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1, in AutoPlay settings, or in Default settings.)

    Please pass this on.

    Thanks,

    Frank
