How to move a window on your screen
In the past, users were in control of the title bar, viewing it as their own real estate. However, in recent times, companies like Google and Microsoft have claimed more space in the title bar for their own content. Consequently, relocating a window with a single hand now requires finding an unoccupied area on the title bar to click and drag. The latest version of Chrome has blurred the distinction between tabs and the area above them, making it all too easy to accidentally detach a tab as a separate window unless you click precisely. I am seeking a solution that enables one-handed window movement without relying on grabbing the title bar. Is there a keyboard shortcut that, when combined with a mouse click, would allow me to drag a window by clicking anywhere within the window? While I am aware of the Move trick for shifting windows that are off-screen, it proves too complex for general use. Operating on a single screen with numerous open windows, I frequently rearrange them. My system runs on Windows 11 version 22H2 (OS Build 22621.2283).
