    I want to disable the little multi-grid snap pop up that appears when I drag windows.

    I've disabled "Snap" via Systems -> Multitasking, but that doesn't seem to have turned it off (it's just stopped the left/right snap, which I actually like).

    I want to stop the little grey pop up that appears in the top center of the my screen that offers multiple snap sizes.

    I actually have no idea what you are talking about and I use the snap functionality the whole time. Have you got a screenshot?

    Hmm I wonder if it's something installed on the laptop when I got it so

    I'll see if I can get a snapshot...

    Never seen something like that before on any Windows 10 PC I've worked with.
    If you can interact with it, you could use process explorer to find the process and track it that way;

    I'd agree. Don't think it's something in W10. Probably something installed by laptop manufacturer.

    What browser are you using OP? Have you tried disabling all of the plugins/extensions in your browser?

    edit: I'm assuming that it's only happening when you drag browser windows.

    Nice one, never thought of using Task Manager.

    Showed up as "MSI True Color"... and was a setting therein.

    Cheers!
