With the Window Layout Menu, it’s easier to organize your windows and apps. So you can do things like easily take notes while watching a lecture. You can even float a window always on top for easy reference.
Check it out by hovering over the “Maximize” button in the top right corner of any window, or by trying the keyboard shortcut (Search + Z). And for tablets and convertibles, just swipe down from the top center of the window.
