Switch to the program that displayed a message in the notification area. If a window is not snapped, hitting Windows + Up Arrow maximizes it while Window + Down Arrow minimizes it. Use the arrow keys to cycle through programs on the taskbar by using Aero Flip 3-D. If you have more than one screen, you can hit the key combo more than once to move a window from one screen to another and you can snap a different window to each monitor edge, allowing you to have eight snapped windows on two displays (or twelve on a three-display setup). If you want your application to take up a quarter of the screen, hit Windows + Up Arrow or Windows + Down Arrow after you snap it to the left or right and it will move into the corner. Hit Windows + Left Arrow to snap a window to the left side of the screen or Windows + Right Arrow to snap it to the right.


To perform this snap feature with the mouse, you need to drag a window all the way to the left or right side of the screen if you want it to take up half or into the corner if you want it to take up a quarter of the space. One of the best features of Windows 10 is is the ability to snap windows next to each other so you can split the screen evenly between two to four applications.
