Description:
Windows displays the current contents of a window, while it is being dragged around the screen instead of just displaying the window outline. For this, go to start > run menu, enter regedit and navigate to the registry path listed below. Create a string value name dragfullwindows in the right panel. Right-click it and modify the data value with 1 to display the entire window with its contents and 0 to display only the outline of the window. Click ok and close the registry editor. Restart the system or logoff to see the changes taking effect. When editing the registry it is highly recommended to run a quick scan for optimization, you can test your system now for free.
