I never want to maximize a window when dragging the window to the top of the screen, but it happens most of the time and is really annoying!
I just want to drag the window to the top of the screen. Is there any way to change this default behavior?

You can customize this with gsettings in Terminal:
gsettings set org.pantheon.desktop.gala.behavior edge-tiling false Use true to revert to default behavior.
Or use the graphical dconf Editor. You need to install it if you haven't done it already:
sudo apt-get install dconf-tools Once it is installed, open it and search for the entry:
org.pantheon.desktop.gala.behaviour edge-tiling There you'll see the default setting:
true you can switch this to:
false to have the desired behavior.
- I was just about to ask this. Will it disable side-tiling too?Jorge– Jorge2015-08-03 19:35:58 +00:00Commented Aug 3, 2015 at 19:35
- I am like a year late, but! This command will disable dragging to tile windows in any direction, including to the sides. You can still use keyboard shortcuts to tile, though.Ryan DeBeasi– Ryan DeBeasi2016-04-09 03:23:54 +00:00Commented Apr 9, 2016 at 3:23
