Microsoft continually enhances its Edge browser by adding several innovative features and changes. One of the most helpful features of Edge is the Split Screen mode, which is easy to access right from the browser toolbar. This multi-tasking feature helps you compare two web pages or view two tabs side-by-side. You can also open links from one tab to the other tab in split-screen mode.
Microsoft expanded the Edge browser’s Split Screen feature with vertical and horizontal view modes. The vertical mode displays one tab on top of the other rather than side by side. The horizontal view mode lets you open two different web pages in each half of the browser, which is more useful on a large-screen monitor.
