How to Split a Screen with Windows Snap Assist

The new Snap Layout feature in Windows 11 is an addition to, not a replacement of, the Windows Snap features found prior versions of Windows. Snap Assist is still an excellent way to split a screen on a Windows PC, particularly if you want to split to show one window on each half. Select the Snap Layout location you prefer. Snap Layout will immediately move the window to the location selected. Select an application in Snap Flyout to snap it to the unoccupied portion of your screen. Continue this until all available locations are occupied. Alternatively, select outside Snap Flyout to exit Snap Layout. All windows you’ve positioned so far will remain where they are. Alternatively, you can activate Snap Assist with your keyboard. Pressing Windows + Left Arrow or Windows + Right Arrow will snap the currently active window to the left or right side of the screen, respectively. Alternatively, drag the window to a corner of your display. It will snap to occupy that quarter of the screen.
