Windows 7 has definitely introduced lot of features along with eye candy but some people still want their Windows 7 to behave exactly like Windows XP. Well, this little trick is for them. Aero snap feature enables you to maximize / arrange windows on your desktop rather neatly by just dragging the window towards the edge of the screen.
However, you can disable the Aero Snap feature by doing the steps below:
1) Open Registry Editor (type regedit in the Start Menu search bar) and navigate to the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
2) In the right pane, change the value of ‘WindowArrangementActive’ to 0.
3) Logoff and login again to experience the changes. Now the windows will behave exactly as it were on Windows XP.
