How to Use Windows 11 Snap Layouts and Groups

Do you use multiple applications, desktops, or virtual machines during your workday? Windows 11 Snap Layouts facilitate the ease of handling multiple Windows simultaneously. Join Mike in this video to learn how you can begin using this new feature today.

To disable or enable Snap Layout on Windows 11, follow these steps:
1. Open the Windows Settings.
2. Select System
3. Go to Multitasking.
4. Turn on the Show snap layouts when I hover over a window’s maximize button box.

I love these kind of videos, when people watch them in 20 years they'll think how nostalgic it is.

Is it possible to save snap layouts so that after reboot all apps and snaps are restored to a saved setting.

can windows Remember the sizing and position of a software everytime I open it? For example, if I always want to have the alarms just on a slim space on the right side of my screen, is there any way Windows can remember that position every time I open it?

What is the name of the program that you make orange box with?

hi is there a way to just save the snap group so when you start your pc again you just klik on the group en it just starts the group with all your items that where last saved in that group?

Can I save a layout? so it will open all those programs and arrange them like they were before?

Great. Is there a way I can have 2 or 3 apps snapped that would always load on startup everytime like outlook+excell+youtube for example on 1 of 2 monitors? Or maybe an app to do it, appreciate...

Hi Mike/All. Nice video thanks. Let's say you have Outlook 50% on the left side of screen and say YouTube on the other 50% right side of screen. How do you configure it so that when you open an email in Outlook, it autosizes to the same 50% of left side of screen and not open up bigger and cover some of your other snap items? Thanks in advance for your time.

with my group minimized I'm unable to open any windows from the main search bar. The only thing I can open is the group I minimized. I'll need to watch the video on working with virtual desktops

how to add space between snapped windows?, lets say 10 pixels separation

These layouts are useless if there is no way to save them for future use. Everytime we need to create these layouts once we shut down and comenack

Thanks helpful andto the point. I wish windows would let me set up arrrangements for icons also. On my physical desktop I have piles of papers that I am currently working on and other areas where I have a pencil cup or chewing gum. They are easy to get to what I need because they arent moving around. On my windows desktop I have frequntly used links of PDFs. But I also have spreadsheets that I have going for diffeent projects. I want the permanent things on one side of the desktop and temporary active things on another side. Window likes to mix all these icons on the desktop and I have to drag them away from each other all the time. Now with the horrible new downgraded start menu in Win 11 this would be even more important.
