    Mostly this is useful for full screen applications where there's no bar to otherwise move the window, like video games.

    It works with up and down but just makes the window take up the upper or lower portion of the screen respectively. It also seems to loop, i.e. with two monitors, pressing right while on the right monitor already will loop around to the left.

    This has been pretty useful to me since I learned it and seems to be an unexplained feature, so I just wanted to share!

    Keyboard Issues, LEFT SHIFT + LEFT CTRL + L/R ARROW doesn't work on travelmate P645-S windows10

    Recently i am facing issues with my laptop. Key combinations doesn't work especially with SHIFT.

    List of combinations (Not working) :

    LEFT SHIFT + LEFT CTRL + LEFT ARROW

    LEFT SHIFT + LEFT CTRL + RIGHT ARROW

    LEFT SHIFT + LEFT CTRL + UP ARROW

    LEFT SHIFT + LEFT CTRL + DOWN ARROW

    RIGHT SHIFT + RIGHT CTRL + RIGHT ARROW

    List of combinations (Working) :

    RIGHT SHIFT + RIGHT CTRL + RIGHT ARROW

    CTRL + C, CTRL + V, CTRL + X

    Other than above 'working' combinations no other combination works with CTRL and SHIFT

    Please let me know why this issue is occurring!

    Is this a hardware issue/ software issue?

    i have updated keyboard drivers, also uninstalled and restarted laptop & let drivers install automatically.

    Also i have checked if laptop's keyboard is loose or anything... everything is fine on that side.

    P.S.

    Recently i have upgraded my 4+4 GB RAM to 4+8 GB RAM

    this RAM is DDR3 and may not be original TIL Pressing Windows + Shift + R + [Left or Right Arrow] Will Move the Active Window to the... :p

    Windows + Shift + right doesn't shift window to the right screen (shifting to the left works fine)

    When I use Windows Key + Shift + left the active window jumps to the monitor on the left like expected TIL Pressing Windows + Shift + R + [Left or Right Arrow] Will Move the Active Window to the... :)
    But when I try to do it the other way around: Windows Key + Shift + right the window doesn't jump back to the right TIL Pressing Windows + Shift + R + [Left or Right Arrow] Will Move the Active Window to the... :( Nothing happens. Why? How can I fix this?

    PS: I am using Windows 10 Version 1903 (64 bit) on my ThinkPad with two additional external monitors.
    Windows Key + right moves the window correctly to the right (step by step but not directly to the next monitor).
    Maybe the Windows Key + Shift + right was overwritten by something else? How can I find out?

    WIN+SHIFT+RIGHT ARROW not working

    The problem is moving an app between monitors not desktops. WIN+SHIFT+Left/right arrow key should move apps between monitors but only the left arrow work on my laptop
