**Description:**

Dragging a snapped window restores its previous size despite:

- “Restore old window size if window is dragged away again” unchecked.

- “Use Classic BetterTouchTool Resizing” selected.

- Native macOS drag-to-tile options disabled.

- “Don't restore old window size if Alt/Option is pressed while dragging away” checked, and holding Alt while dragging the window away.

**Device information:**

- Type of Mac: MacBook Pro 14 2023
- macOS version: macOS 26.7.2
- BetterTouchTool version: 6.992

* * *

**Additional information (e.g. crash logs, related issues, etc.):**

- An already-snapped window still restores its previous size after quitting BTT.

- Native tiling through the green-button menu produces the same behavior.

- Slightly resizing a tiled window manually before dragging does not prevent restoration.

- A new window resized only manually moves without changing size.
