Windows 10

[Dan]

OK, so I basically made my new desktop into Windows 7 (Classic Shell>Aero, Quick launch bar, etc), but 1 annoying thingis left.
When I try to scroll from the top of 1 monitor to the next monitor it's stops you if your mouse is at the top of the screen.

So if my mouse is where the tabs are in Chrome on the left monitor and I try to scroll to where the tabs are in Chrome on the right monitor it gets stuck on the left monitor and when I left-click to switch to a new tab I actually wind up closing the entire Chrome window in my left monitor.

Any solution?

I'm not on Windows 10, but that sounds like your 2 monitors aren't on the same size and/or resolution, is that the case?

Alas MS appears to have disabled the registry edit in Win 10

Wouldn't that be a good thing? It makes it much easier to close a window on the left monitor, without overshooting the X.

Except that I'm used to how it was in Win7 and have accidentally closed the window several times today.

How about this:
On Windows 10, go to:

Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Ease of Access Center\Make the mouse easier to use

which I found by searching settings for 'edge'.

Check the box for Prevent windows from being automatically arranged when moved to the edge of the screen.

I don't seem to have EdgeUi under ImmersiveShell, do you?

I don't either have it. You can try creating it.

Change is usually for the better after you get used to it.

2. Under ImmersiveShell key, create a new key EdgeUI.
3. Now select newly created key "EdgeUI" and in right-side pane, create a new DWORDDisableCharmsHint and set its value to 1

+1 worked well for me

Awesome, thanks guys. That pretty much turns this into a Win 7 machine.

Now I just need to figure out why the desktop is making a squeaky noise, almost like a mosquito buzzing your ear, every 5 minutes exactly on the 5s and 10s...

You actually made the windows 10 upgrade?!  Weren't you a die-hard fan of windows 7?
