> I like drag-to-side-to-go-halfscreen for window management

Ughhh: good idea, terribly implemented. Last time I used Windows 10, it seemed like every time I tried to drag my window around, Windows would guess that I wanted to also full-screen it, or pin it to one side, or close all other windows, or anything else besides just repositioning it. I feel I need to have a surgeon's precision in order to just drag a window around my desktop now.

This is why Spectacle (loads of similar tools are available) is so good — all that happens via keyboard shortcuts. Does Windows offer the same, plus the ability to turn off the dragging behaviour?
