Default Most annoying post-Gates/Ballmer screwup: Can't arrange windows

Putting three windows "side by side" according to the current

Can they be that idiotic? Or are they just trying to cover for
their ineptness?

It's like we live in the age of idiotic, or perhaps drug crazed,
programmers. Google loves screwing with YouTube, about every
other day you can notice them messing with it. I would like to
scramble their programming tools and see how they like it.


What are the odds that "Aero Snap" is doing that ?


Windows is doing that, Paul.

Find the panel with all the tick boxes for screen features.

I'm sure you know how to do this, but...

Slam your pointer to the lower right corner and click, to clear the
desktop. Open a small window to make sure auxiliary windows do not
pop up automatically. If they do, close them.

Open one instance of WordPad.
Open two more instances of WordPad.
Right-click on an open area on the Taskbar and select "Show windows side-by-side".

Something is very wrong at Microsoft. I wonder why they chose
to leave half of the screen blank. But I really don't want to know.
