How do I disable Aero Shake in Windows 7?
In Windows 7, if you grab a window and shake it back and forth, there is a shortcut to minimize all the windows.
I keep doing this by accident so I would like to disable this feature.
Is there a way?

In the "search programs and files" box type
gpedit.msc
right click on the search result and run as administrator
Go to User Configuration > administrative templates > desktop
In there at the bottom(-ish) you will see "Turn off aero shake window minimizing mouse gesture", double click it and make your selection in the window that opens

It requires you to edit the registry. Here is an article on how to do it.

I tried this approach in Windows 8 and found that it had no effect. – Richard Ev – 2013-08-07T07:44:37.927
