If you have been using Windows 10 for a while, you might know that the operating system offers many multitasking features. For instance, you can install app switchers to switch between apps; you can add a custom sidebar to launch an app quickly, etc.

Upon all these features, the native split-screen feature seems to be the best one. Let’s admit, when we are working with our computers, we usually have multiple windows open at once.
