    Windows [10] makes it too difficult to resize a maximised window.


    There is almost certainly thousands of questions open about this already, and probably hundreds of bugs. But given how often this problem comes up, I think i'm doing a favour raising a question / bug about this. I urge other users to do the same. It's proposterous that an operating system gui this mature, continues to be plagued with such frustrating usability issues. Usecase:I am running blender. It's full screen. I need to sample a colour from a different window. Because Windows switches focus automatically, i have to resize the blender window. So I go to the bottle of the window and try and

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    [Request] Make GPU-Z windows resizable

    Very simple thing, but it would make my life so much easier. I run some Radeon 5970 cards and each primary GPU has a list of associated sensors that exceeds the length of the GPU-Z window and so a scrollbar appears. This means that I have to run two instances of the program for that GPU if I want to see its full list of VRM temps and also its current frequencies.

    I imagine this happens with other cards too, and probably on the 7970/7990 if AMD ever gets around to releasing that.

    Please make the window size adjustable *Big Grin Windows [10] makes it too difficult to resize a maximised window. :D
