12How to Disable Drag Top of Screen Snap Layouts on Windows 11 [Tutorial]
Starting with Windows 11 build 22557, Microsoft added a new way to snap windows into snap layouts that works wonderfully with both touch and mouse! To try it out, just drag a window to the top of the screen to reveal the snap layouts, drop the window on top of a zone to snap it, and use snap assist to finish building your layout.
Windows 11 2022 Update (version 22H2) introduces a new Snap layouts interface, which allows you to drag a window to the top of the screen to reveal the Snap layouts menu. Then you can drop the window on top of a zone to snap it and use snap assists to finish snapping the windows in the selected layout.

Starting with Windows 11 build 25300, Microsoft is trying out different treatments for snap layouts with Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel. Microsoft is investigating ways to improve the discoverability and usage of the snap layouts such as decreasing the hover time required to invoke the flyout when you mouse over the maximum/restore button in an app’s title bar. In addition to a few other tweaks, you’ll notice some treatments will also pull in the icon of the app window you are working in and adding a descriptive title. If you see one of these treatments, give Microsoft feedback on what you think. As a reminder, it is normal for Microsoft to try out different concepts in the Dev Channel to get feedback.
If you want to turn on or turn off Snap Layouts when you drag the window to the top in Windows 11, here is how you can do that.
