On my desktop machine, if I drag a Windows Explorer window toward the top of my screen, a black rectangle containing 6 possible screen layouts drops down allowing me to choose, for example, side-by-side Explorer displays.
On my laptop (V 21H2 (OS Build 22000.1098), this option isn't available. The latest build isn't available for my laptop yet (Safeguard Hold). Anyone know if this is a feature of the latest build? I thought it had been around longer than the latest build on my desktop machine.
