Have you ever needed to see two or more windows on your screen at the same time but also needed the windows equally sized? You can do this quickly and easily without having to manually resize and align each window.

 

First, open two or more windows on your screen. The windows cannot be minimized to the task bar. This is the bar on which your Start button, minimized windows and quick launch icons are displayed.

 

Then, right-click the taskbar and select “Tile Windows Horizontally” or “Tile Windows Vertically.” Your open windows will be tiled on your screens according to the option you choose.

 

To undo the tile, right-click on the taskbar and select “Undo Tile.”
