AquaSnap

AquaSnap is a Windows utility for arranging desktop windows through docking, tiling, snapping, and grouped movement. Drag a window to a screen edge or corner to resize it to half or a quarter of the screen. When two windows are side by side, holding Ctrl while resizing one also adjusts the other. Windows can snap together, and double-clicking an edge maximizes the window in that direction. Holding Ctrl while moving a window carries its adjacent group along. Mouse and keyboard shortcuts are customizable; mouse shortcuts offer 15 clickable areas and up to five mouse buttons. AquaSnap also works with TidyTabs, so tabbed groups can be docked, tiled, and snapped. The product lists 64-bit support from Windows 7 through Windows 11, plus a portable version that can run from a USB stick without installation. The free Personal Freeware plan is for personal use only. The Standard License costs $29 as a one-time purchase for one computer and is a lifetime license valid for future versions. The Site License costs $899 as a one-time purchase for unlimited computers at one physical location.
