Windows 10 has a nice new feature called “Virtual Desktops”. I should say that it’s only new to Windows because Mac & Linux users have had this feature for a long time. Now it’s a fully supported feature in Windows as well.
What is a virtual desktop?
It’s kind of like having 2 monitors, but only being able to see one of them at a time.
How to activate the feature:
First, click the “Task View” button next to your search button on the task bar on the lower left of your screen.
You’ll be shown all the current virtual desktops you have. If this is your first time, you’ll only see your current desktop shrunk down to the middle of the screen. Now, on the lower right corner, click “New desktop”. It has a large “+” above it.
That created your new, virtual desktop. Now you have 2 thumbnails in the lower, middle of your screen. Each thumbnail represents one of your virtual desktops. Just click the one you want to enlarge to full screen.
Click the “Task View” button again to switch back to any virtual desktop you have.
