A quick way to split your Windows screen in two, and have two windows side by side

One of the tips that we cover in Part 5 of our series of videos about Windows File Explorer (being featured in our Video of the Day series, and available to Premium iTandCoffee Club members all year round) is how to quickly and easily split your Windows screen into two equal parts, without having to manually drag the edges/corners of the windows and then move them into a side-by-side position.

In the scenario we cover in the Part 5 video, we use this split screen to organise files into folders. This allows us to drag files/folders showing on one side of the screen into a folder showing on the other side. (Note. The Part 5 video will feature as Video of the Day on 27/10/21 - for those of you with eligible iTandCoffee Club membership.)

The same split screen capability can also be so useful when you need to be looking at information from two apps at once - or perhaps need to compare two versions of a document/file.

We have extracted this tip from our longer video to show here as a Handy Hint for our iTandCoffee Club members. Members can use the button below to access this hint. (Not yet a member? Learn more and Join the Club here.)
