How does the Snap window works under Windows 11, activate / deactivate?


MS Windows 11 OS makes it easier for us to position windows in preset layouts thanks to a function called Snap!




In the past, positioning was possible with the Windows key in combination with the arrow keys. What's even better in Windows 11 OS is that the new function is available via a pop-up menu that is hidden in the existing maximize button, making it easily accessible. And it works without an additional space-wasting button!
