Windows 11’s hit box for resizing windows is vertically zero – You can only resize if you’re in the horizontal hit box.

I've recently "upgraded" (I'm regretting it) to Windows 11 and I noticed that I was having more trouble resizing windows. It turns out it's because there is no vertical hit box to convert the cursor into a resize one.

In short, you can trace the vertical edge of a window all the way down to the very bottom and it still won't change into a resize icon. You MUST select a horizontal pixel to get the resize option.

I shouldn't be able to get all the way down the edge of the window and it still show me the cursor shown in the image I've attached. It should be a resize cursor.

I'm probably explaining this badly, so just go try it yourself. This applies to all four corners.

It's bad usability compared with previous iterations of Windows.
