    Snap Assist

    Hi Cory,

    The Snap Assist allows you to juggle apps, arrange open windows, resize windows by simply dragging and dropping them to the edges of the screen. If you don't want to get a quarter screen snap, you can change the settings of Snap Assist by follow the steps below:

    • Open the Settings app
    • Click System.
    • Click Multitasking.
    • You can turn off some of the option of Snap Assist on this window.

    If you want to disable Snap Assist, you can turn off Arrange windows automatically by dragging them to the sides or corners of the screen.

    Should you have further queries, feel free to post it.

    Snap (double screen)

    How can I make my screen snap if I'm using two monitors? It would be nice if I could right click on the menu bar and have a dropdown option to snap when I have two screens open or double screens. Obviously I can't just click and drag to snap the screen as
    you can do with a single monitor screen.

    There should be a way to do multiple snap screens with multiple monitors/screens...

    That's my suggestion... Thanks,

  4. Screen snaps to show all open windows

    IE 11 Set where new window open on the screen (i.e. always snapped right side)

    Hi,

    You can actually arrange your windows in a snap. Snap Assist
    is a way to effortlessly arranging your windows on the desktop just the way you want them.

    1. Launch your internet browser and the application you use to view your PDF files.

    2. Click on your browser's window to make it active.

    3. Snap it to the left side of the screen by pressing
    Windows key + Left arrow.

    Thumbnails of the other opened windows will appear in the free space of your desktop. Click on the thumbnail of your PDF application, and that window will snap to the right side of the screen.

    Other keyboard shortcuts:

    • Windows key + Right arrow - Will snap the current active window to the left side of the screen.
    • Windows key + Up arrow - Will snap the window to the top quarter of the screen.
    • Windows key + Down arrow - Will snap the window to the bottom quarter of the screen.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.
