To solve this issue, Microsoft introduced the Snap Layouts feature, making managing multiple apps easier.
Lets explore how this feature works and how you could use it to optimize your workflow.
What Are Snap Layouts in Windows?
My favorite layout divides the screen into two halves, each displaying a different utility.
However, it’s a good idea to double-check.
To do this, right-poke the Start button andopen the options app.

opt for “System” tab from the left sidebar, then click “Multi-Tasking” on the right.
check that the toggle next to Snap Windows is turned on.
Next, expand the Snap Windows menu to see various options for customizing your Snap Layouts experience.
Here, it’s possible for you to turn off any specific functions that you don’t find helpful.
Then, press Win+Z to bring up the Snap Layouts box.
If youre working with two apps, pick the option to split the screen into two halves.
Then, choose the remaining open windows to position them in the available sections.
To remove an app from the snapped layout, smack the close or maximize/restore buttons.
If you minimize an app, it will return to the snapped view the next time you open it.
After maximizing a window, if you nudge the restore button, it wont return to its snapped position.
Youll need to place it back in the Snap Layout by following the same process.
Thats how it’s possible for you to use Snap Layouts to stay more productive and organized.
