You can\u2019t do all of the advanced layouts that Windows 11 offers, but Windows 10 can do a lot more than the side-by-side two windows that most people know.<\/p>\n<p>What makes all of this easy to use is something called \u201cSnap Assist.\u201d Rather than manually resizing and moving windows around, you can simply drag them to areas on the screen, and Windows 10 will automatically do the work for you.<\/p>\n<p>There are six zones that you can use with Snap Assist. Drag to a corner to snap the window to that quarter of the screen. Drag to the left or right edge to snap to that half of the screen. Basically, you can do any layout that fits in a 2\u00d72 grid: four-quarter windows, one-half and two quarters, or just two halves.<\/p>\n<p>This all works by simply dragging windows around the screen. Left-click the title bar on a window and drag it to the corners or left or right edges. You\u2019ll see a transparent overlay indicate how the window will snap. Release the mouse to snap.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-738618\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021-06-30_17-11-36.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Snap layout transparency.\" width=\"651\" height=\"331\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>When using the left or right edge sn<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ing, the second half of the screen will automatically display your other open windows.

For the smaller quadrants, use Windows Key + Right \/ Left, and then Windows Key +\u00a0Up \/ Down.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Windows 10\u2019s doesn\u2019t support vertical snapping. You can\u2019t use Snap Assist to put one window on the top half and another on the bottom half. You have to do it manually.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Rearrange Windows with Keyboard Shortcuts on Windows 10<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fancy_Zones\"><\/span>Fancy Zones<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/2021-02-03_9-45-59.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"edit newly create layout\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>If Windows 10\u2019s built-in Snap Assist features aren\u2019t enough, you can try Microsoft\u2019s free \u201cPowerToys\u201d app. It includes a powerful window layout tool called \u201cFancy Zones.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fancy Zones stretches the functionality of Snap Assist past the basic 2\u00d72 grid. You can actually create your own layouts with complex grids and even overlapping zones. It\u2019s pretty awesome if you need that sort of thing.<\/p>\n<p>We have a full guide on setting up and using Fancy Zones. The tool also lets you configure windows to\u00a0automatically open to the last zone they were in. If you really want to replicate the Snap Layouts from Windows 11, Fancy Zones is the way to do it. It\u2019s definitely not as quick and easy to switch between the layouts as it is in Windows 11, but it\u2019s better than the default Snap Assist.<\/p>\n<p>Still not satisfied? The good <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> is that Windows 11 will be a free upgrade, and it\u2019s coming in late 2021. You can try a preview of Windows 11 right now if you\u2019re impatient.
