My new tablet has an eMMC drive so I cannot wipe and install Windows 7. I am trying to get rid of the most annoying Windows 8.1 interface things.
I have already fixed a number of issues with registry files and Classic Shell. Right now I am trying to get rid of the thing that when you accidentally swipe down from the top of the screen, the whole Desktop goes into thumbnail mode and moves around (if you swipe it down the bottom it will even close), or the screen gets split in two... really annoying.
I tried "Disable active corners" set to "All" but it didn't work, restarted but no change.
I Googled it and found that that's how you close the new apps. The most common keyword is "drag handle" because that's what you see when you use a mouse (I don't, only touch). The two threads I found so far (see below) offer the same solution ("Disable active corners" set to "All"), any idea why it is not working for me?

I am not keen to try the other tools listed in the second thread, I'd rather use only Classic Shell.
