Windows Desktop Organisation

by

In an ongoing crusade to make better (more organised) use of my desktop, I’m looking into apps & shortcuts to speed up & automate tasks relating to window movement, placement, etc.

Some very useful keyboard shortcuts:

  • Win+Left arrow: Snap to the left half of the screen
  • Win+RIght arrow: Snap to the right half of the screen
  • Win+Up arrow: Maximize the window
  • Win+Down arrow: Minimize/Restore if it’s maximized
  • Win+Shift+Left arrow: Move window to the monitor on the left
  • Win+Shift+Right arrow: Move window to the monitor on the right
