Meanwhile, macOS didn’t add this feature until the OS X El Capitan version. And of course, to the current version of Windows 10, this split-screen feature has been upgraded to a higher level, you can open 3 or more separate windows to increase work efficiency.

3. Switch to ON in the line “Snap windows”, then continue to tick the 03 options below as shown to enable the split screen feature on Windows 10.
One of the easiest ways to split the screen in Windows 10 is to use an operation called Side-by-Side Snap. To use this, you just need to use your mouse, keyboard or… finger (if it’s a touch screen) to drag a window to the edge of the screen, it will automatically magnify to exactly half the screen. With the other half of the screen, Snap Assist will suggest you select an open window to fill the note, or you can manually open a new application to fill this part.
Once you have two windows as shown above, you can resize them by dragging the border that divides the screen. You can shrink one window and make the other bigger. However, it has a limit on that window size. This is to avoid you dragging to create a window that is too small to do anything.
In case of using a mouse, drag a window and then push it close to the left or right edge of the screen until Windows 10 shows a half-screen border. Release the mouse and select another application window to fill the rest of the screen.
If using the keyboard, in the window you are working in, press Windows key + left key to maximize the window to the left or Windows + right arrow to maximize the window to the right. Then you use the Tab key to select the remaining window in the same way as above.
In addition, the split screen feature on Windows 10 is also equipped with a mode called Corner Snap. To activate, you can drag the drop window to the four corners of the screen. This way you will divide the working screen into 4 windows. If you have a monitor that supports high resolutions like 2K or 4K, this is great. You can work with more windows at once.
Great is not it?
