Windows 10: Win10 WinKey+Shift+Arrow no longer moves open window to second monitor.

I used to have the functionality of just hitting Win+Shift+Arrow (in the direction of where a monitor was in relation to the open window) to shift the open window over to the other monitor easily. From one day to the nexxt, after a reboot, that functionality is gone. Any idea how to get it back? Thank you.

Windows Key + Shift + Arrows not working with Chrome

WinKey + Shift + [Arrow] is the Windows keyboard shortcut (hotkey) for moving windows between monitors. I have 2 monitors set up side-by-side and since yesterday noticed that I could not use this hotkey to move a maximized Chrome between them.

What I have tried:

• Using a non-maximized Chrome window. The hotkey works when Chrome is not maximized.
  
• Restarting Windows. No change.
  
• Using other WinKey + [Arrow] hotkeys with Chrome. All other combinations have worked when Chrome is maximized and not.
  
• Using WinKey + Shift + [Arrow] with other applications. It works with all other applications I've tried (Evernote, OneNote, Firefox, VSCode) both maximized and not.
  
• Using an incognito window with no extensions allowed. No change.
  
• Using Chrome Canary. It also does not work with that application.
  
• Checking my keyboard using KeyboardTest. The relevant keys don't seem to have problems.
  
• Trying with a different monitor. No change.
  

Notes:

• When I use the hotkey on a maximized Chrome window and then restore (un-maximize) the window, it moves to the other monitor.
  
• When I use the hotkey multiple times on a maximized Chrome window and then restore the window, it moves off-screen somewhere. I can use the hotkey to move it back to one of my monitors.
  

I have searched online for solutions but they fall into the categories of

1. All WinKey movement shortcuts do not work
   
2. Chrome does not accept any keyboard input
   
3. Semi-relevant and Unanswered
   

Versions:

• Windows 10 v1607 build 14931.1000
  
• Chrome 56.0.2896.3 dev
  

I would appreciate any help or advice.

 

How do I disable WinKey + Arrow preview?


I use the WinKey + Arrows to move or resize open windows to half of the screen (left or right side). It's always been quick and easy. However with the upgrade to Windows 10, I now get a thumbnail of other windows that are open (in the picture provided - they are the two smaller windows on the right side).

I would really like to know if there is a way to disable this feature.
