If you are multitasking and using two or more windows at the same time, then you could manually place these windows side by side and carry out the desired task. Or even better, you could eliminate this manual method and take the automatic approach. Windows 10 comes baked in with a Split Screen functionality that allows you to simultaneously use up to four screens at one go.
Playing YouTube videos at one end, working on your docs at the other end, and browsing the net using the third window, how cool will it be, isn’t it? Likewise, it scores pretty high on the usability front as well. So in this guide, we will show you how to use the Windows 10 Split Screen using two different methods. Furthermore, we will also share some handy tips that will streamline your entire multitasking process. Follow along for the instructions.

So here how this feature looks, upon opening two, three, and four windows simultaneously.
- When you are using two windows, each of them ends up occupying 50% of the screen.

- Likewise, upon opening four windows, each of them gets one quadrant each.
