Resize Window Keyboard Shortcuts in Windows 10

After using Magnet, a window manager in OSX, I remembered hearing that there was a similar facility built into Windows. Turns out, they are very easy-to-remember shortcuts for resizing windows.

  • Win + Right Arrow - Snap to right half of screen**
  • Win + Left Arrow - Snap to left half of screen**
  • Win + Up Arrow - Maximize current window
  • Win + Down Arrow - Minimize window if not currently maximized

**(will maximize the window if it is currently split on the opposite side of the screen)

There's a few others too, but these 4 I'm finding super useful. If you're interested in other Windows shortcuts, I found some other cool ones in this Lifewire article
