    Windows 10 Snap Assist/ Multitasking Not Working

    I had same problem. I was pulling my hair out! I kept searching for answers and found it. I clicked on a link on how to deactivate snap assist and discovered that snap assist is not activated automatically on install of Windows 10. Pretty big step to leave
    out if you ask me on all of the instruction videos of multitasking with 10. haha. Anyway. Go to settings from start. Then go to multitasking and you will see the answer to your question. Turn on snap assist. Hope this helps. Pay it forward.

  3. Snap multitasking not working properly

    Have you made any changes or performed any updates recently? Please check the Snap settings and make sure that these settings are enabled:

    • Arrange windows automatically by dragging them to the sides or corners of the screen.
    • When I snap a window, automatically size it to fill available space
    • When I snap a window, show what I can snap next to it
    • When I resize a snapped window, simultaneously resize any adjacent snapped window

    Just click the Windows key > Setting >
    System
    , then select Multitasking.

    Looking forward to your reply.

    Regards.

    Windows 10 Snap Assist/ Multitasking Not Working

    Same issue here too. Was switching between apps andsnapping windows, then suddenly snap feature stopped working. Ran sfc and dism with no fix or changes. Checked all obvious settings, turned multitasking off and on, even created a new user and still no fix.

    Snap feature does work in desktop mode however but still doesn't work in tablet mode.
