    Windows key plus arrow keys to create side-by-side windows not working correctly


    Hi all. I'm running into a weird issue and hopefully somebody can help.

    When I try to put two windows side by side using the Windows key plus the arrow keys, everything works UNTIL I try to grab the border where the windows meet and move it left or right (to make one window take up more of the screen than the other window). It only grabs the edge of one window and resizes that window alone, instead of resizing both windows and keeping the edges together.

    Then if I start the process over, everything will work the second time. I can grab the border where the two windows meet and move it left or right to change the size of the windows while keeping the edges together. But it never works the first time.

    It's pretty frustrating. Any ideas?

    Show windows side by side from taskbar


    Use Windows Key + right arrow key and Windows Key + left arrow key for side by side viewing.

    down arrow key stopped working

    My razor lycosa down arrow key decided to not respond at some point today. The other ones work and so does the numpad arrow if i turn off the numlock. Sounds like its just broken and im screwed, but any suggestions?
