This is a Linux Mint issue. The Alt+click combination is bound to “move window”.
The solution listed at the end:
Go to Menu.
Select Preferences.
Navigate to the Windows section.
Click on the Behavior tab.
Locate the option for ‘Special Key to move and resize windows.’
Set it to ‘Disabled’ (or any other preference you’d like).
The only problem I had was resizing the windows partition with gparted. It moved files that Windows considered unmovable, and I couldn’t boot Windows again.
Just reading and writing files, particularly in the user directory, should have no problems at all.
The apply button is at the bottom of each settings page. It’s not deliberately hidden, but it is easy to miss. Just closing the settings page will revert all changes.
It works for me. One thing to note is that your have to press the hidden apply button after changing any settings for then to take effect. I’ve forgotten it many times.
Tools like GParted should be able to safely reduce the size of the partition so you can add a second. (Always backup data in case)
Australians aren’t turning away from electric cars, they’re turning away from Tesla.
The writer of the article doesn’t seem to be aware that any other electric cars exist, and the whole article seems to be written on that assumption which makes many misleading statements.
