Here are some interesting Windows 11 features you need to know if you have just upgraded to Microsoft Windows 11.
1. Windows 11 Snap Layout
It is very easy to snap Windows left-and-right, but you need to be familiar with the keyboard shortcuts (Windows Key + Arrows). This is made easier by Windows 11, especially for those who only do it once in a while.
Simply hover your cursor above the button to minimize-maximize, resize or resize. You will be able to see mini snapping templates from which you can choose. This is much more efficient than dragging Windows around corners or using keyboard shortcuts.
Importantly, snapping your windows won’t cause them to lose their settings even if one of the windows is expanded independently. To return to Snap settings, you can simply hover over the icon on the taskbar.
2. Try Windows 11 widgets
Windows 11 widgets are a great way to keep track of things you regularly monitor. And this is one of the best Windows 11 features. Also, it looks cool. This is where to check stock prices, weather, calendar, and your “To do” list.
There are very few widgets that you can add to your site. This is due to Microsoft services. We expect to see more third-party options in the future. You can also customize and resize widgets.
