Not only can you use this to select what you want to focus on, but if you weren't aware of the feature, you might accidentally shake something and not know how to return the rest of your open windows or documents.
Between 2012 and 2014, user interfaces on desktops, mobile devices, and websites underwent a cardinal shift towards flat design.[40] This shift coincided with the decline of Frutiger Aero and Windows Aero. Later in the early 2020s, Frutiger Aero has known a nostalgic revival on Reddit, YouTube as well as TikTok where the hashtag #frutigeraero was used over 30 million times.[32][39]
Aero Shake was part of the Windows Aero interface that has long been outdated. In Windows 7, Microsoft introduced two new ways to arrange windows and manage their size/position and window state. The two features are called "Aero Snap" and "Aero Shake" respectively. The Aero Snap feature arranges and resizes windows by moving them to the left, top or right edge of the screen. The second one, Aero Shake, allows you to minimize all open apps when you shake the active window.
Also, I would like to mention that there is an option in Winaero Tweaker that allows disabling Aero Shake for your user account. It is under Behavior \ Disable Aero Shake in the left pane of the app. On the right, you'll find the appropriate checkbox.
Tip: Winaero Twеaker is essential software for every Windows 10, Windows 8 and Windows 7 user. It allows you to customize the appearance and behavior of the operating system in a flexible way.

Aero Shake is a part of Windows 7 Aero desktop effects, and it is also a new feature in Windows 7. The role of Aero Shake is to quickly minimize other open windows except for the one you are currently shaking. If you have opened multiple windows but want to keep only one window, but don't want to minimize all other open windows one by one, this feature can save you time. Then, shake the open window again to restore all minimized windows.
Aero Shake---a fun little feature that lets you grab a window by the title bar and shake it to minimize all other open windows---can sometimes get in the way. If you don't like it, you can turn it off with a quick Registry or Group Policy edit.
In previous versions of the operating system, the title bar window shake (Aero Shake) feature was enabled by default, but on Windows 11 and later, the feature is disabled by default. However, the Settings app now allows you to decide how to use it.
When you drag the title bar of an active window and shake it back and forth, Windows will minimize all other open windows. Shaking the title bar again will restore all the minimized windows. This is a handy feature called Aero Shake, which is introduced since Windows 7. If you tend to accidentally triggered Aero shake, here are 3 methods to disable it in Windows 10.
Simply launch the program and once it's loaded, grab the window you want to leave open with your mouse and shake it a few times. You'll see how all the other windows are magically minimized to the taskbar.
But don't write off the daddy just yet (and Beatles songs simply are great): in the end, racing is about entertainment, so not everything points purely to performance. In this article, we want to compare the design choices that were made in terms of aerodynamics and see how these affect the cars, but also the entire sport by extension.
Let's start with a brief of history on aerodynamics in racing. Long ago, when aerodynamics weren't exploited yet, the maximum cornering performance was limited to about 1G, dictated by the friction coefficient of the tires - you could take about as much lateral force as the weight (or gravity force) on the car itself. But with the advent of aerodynamics, designers started using the air to push the car down, and not just a little: the extra vertical push downward easily surpasses the weight of the car itself - so yes, theoretically a Formula One car ís able to ride upside down (once it has reached a critical speed, so you'll need a cool helical loop or something :) ).
To achieve this, they apply large front wings, rear wings, diffusers and so on. But this comes at a penalty: it also greatly increases the aerodynamic drag, or the forward driving resistance of the car. If you have a powerful car, you can overcome the drag penalty and just go for the high down force gains. If you have a less powerful car, you do the opposite: tweak for less down force and reduce the drag penalty. Let's compare the kid to the daddy.
Formula One is going nuts in terms of aerodynamics, with lateral forces exceeding 5G's at times. To achieve that, their setup is optimized for high down force values, and they simply overcome the drag penalty with their powerful engines. We analysed a generic Formula One 3D model on AirShaper at 50 m/s and got the following results: 1799N of drag and 3294N of down force.
Well, it's a combination of things. First of all, electric (race) cars face the challenge of range, so saving energy is important. They achieve that by a.o. reducing the drag coefficient (and loosing down force in the process) and racing on street circuits (lower top speeds reduce power consumption. Another reason for the aerodynamic setup is likely the entertainment value: lower down force also means the air behind the car is less turbulent, making it easier for the chasing opponent to stay close (as he or she still gets enough clean air to get enough down force).
So in conclusion: the new kid will have to exercise a few more years to outperform the daddy in terms of raw aerodynamics performance. But it made very mature choices towards offering high entertainment value which is, after all, one of the most important aspects of racing!
I am making a application with a borderless window on Windows. However, since the window is borderless, I have no areo shadow, snap, minimization animation, or shake. I have looked around and found no site that explains how to implement this. However, I know it is possible because Office 2013, Visual Studio 2012, and Steam all have these features and are borderless. I am specifically using QT and C++ but if you have solved this for another windowing library I would like to hear your solutions as well. either. And by areo shadow I don't mean drop shadow on two sides, I mean the glowing shadow on all sides of all active native areo windows applications.
The simplest window style I got the shadow to work with was WS_POPUP WS_THICKFRAME, to also get aero snap, maximizing, minimizing, and the smooth minimize animation I used WS_POPUP WS_THICKFRAME WS_MINIMIZEBOX WS_MAXIMIZEBOX WS_CAPTION.
First introduced in Windows 7, Aero Shake is a feature that lets you minimize every other window except the one that is open. This is particularly useful when trying to focus. If a notification pops up and you want to close everything except that notification, just give it a shake!
I always seem to shake the window when thinking about where I want to move it, and it has caused nothing but stress trying to find and reopen all my windows..
I love using the snap function, so I used your 3rd method to disable the Aero Shake, and it worked!
Thank you so much, this has been a genuine life saver!
This recipe is for 500 ml (One milkshake) to create bulk batches just double, Tripple the ingredients. Can be made with any type of blender. The big 2L types or the 500ML Ninja bullet / Nutri bullet etc.
The recipe is simple to prepare and the cost of the ingredients is inexpensive. Making this a very profitable beverage for restaurants with an average price of 4.50, as well as providing individuals the option of saving money by making their favourite milkshake at home.
The trick is simple - just click on title bar of the window that you want to keep in the foreground, hold your mouse and shake it in either directions. All open windows, except the one you are holding, will now be minimized to the toolbar.
If you, like me, dislike the ability in Windows 7 to shake a window to minimize all other windows, then you can disable it with the following registry hack. Create the DWORD value NoWindowMinimizingShortcuts in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer and give it the value 1.
