  1. How to CHANGE Keyboard shortcut to move a window between two or more screens


    We can move the window from one screen to another using Windows Key + Shift + Arrow Key. I was wondering is there a way we can change the shortcut to lets say CTRL + ~ or something else.


    I hate to take my hand away from the mouse when juggling through various documents. In the past I have been using Actual Multiple Monitors that had a feature to override this. however due to change in security policy I had to uninstall this software.


    Any suggestions?


    Thanks

    :)
