Since most modern computer GUI:s use shift+<arrow_key> to select text
it seems best to me to not use that for windmove. (They are the
default still in windmove, but that is because Emacs struggles with
backward compatibility. A struggle so hard that it can perhaps kill
Emacs.)
To avoid them you can just use for example
(windmove-default-keybindings 'meta)
With this you move with meta+<arrow_key>.
