How to Split Your Screen in Windows 10 & 11

By Timothy Tibbetts

With larger screens becoming more and more affordable, using a split-screen can be useful and easy to do in Windows 10.

Go to Start > Settings > System Multitasking. Verify that Snap Windows is on.

Open any application you like and use the Windows key and left or right keys to move that application to the left or right side of your screen.

Now open another application and use the arrow keys to move each window from right to left.

If you have multiple windows open, you will see thumbnails of running apps that you can click on using your mouse to fill the opposite side.

Now, if you got curious, you might have also pressed the arrow keys up and down. If not, try that now.

You can split your screen into four using the up and down arrows. You'll need to adjust the Windows to fit the screen manually.

Using Snap Assist isn't perfect, but it's one of those Windows features many people aren't aware was available.

One minor problem is that the screens often overlap, so you need to adjust them manually.

Anyway, hopefully, you've discovered something new you can use.
