   I'd never been all that keen on installing a piece of software just to tweak   
   one single setting but having said that, it does the job and much more besides.   
      
   However, I've finally stumbled across a registry tweak that does the job   
   which, IMO, is a better way of achieving the same thing:   
      
   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics\   
      
   - Right-click on "PaddedBorderWidth"   
      
   - Click "Modify"   
      
   - Change the default "Value data" from -60 to -20   
      
   - REBOOT Windows   
      
   This works a treat on my Win11(22H2)(64-Bit) install but whether it works on   
   older versions of Win11 or on Win10, I really cannot say.   
      
   Regards,   
   Martin
