Right click on the taskbar and choose ‘Show windows side-by-side’.Thumbnails of the other windows will appear, click one to see that on the other side of the screen.A discreet box will appear on that side, release the mouse and the window will snap to that side. Drag a window (from the title bar) to the left or right of the screen.There are other ways to get the ‘side-by-side’ look. Win + to the right.Ĭhange the half n half proportions by dragging the vertical edge of one window, a bar with handle will appear.

There are various ways to do it (see below) but the easiest & fastest is pressing the Windows key with one of the four arrow keys. Windows 10 can display programs either side-by-side, top and bottom or even four windows with one in each corner. For example, Word on one side and Excel on another, or Word and a web browser, two Word documents or PowerPoint and a PDF. No fussing about switching between windows or getting lost with all the open application. Side by Side or Split View is great for many situations. We highlighted Word 365’s Side to Side view but there’s another side-by-side viewing trick that works for any two windows on either Windows or Mac.
