Try it. Move your Steam window around. See how it snaps to the edges of your display(s)?
Why is Steam the only program (I know) that does that natively? I would love for ALL my Windows programs to do that (without installing 3rd party softwares/scripting).
EDIT : I’m on Win10.
All my windows snap like that, I don’t know what you’re talking about. Just go to System Settings, search for snap, go to Window Behavior, click on Movement tab at the top. You can configure your window snapping preferences here.
Windows key + left or right arrow key will blow your mind.
That doesn’t really help in my experience because this state is not saved. You have to do tricks in order to get it saved like move the window a bit or resize it etc.
Check out PowerToys
Also up and down after left right
On windows 11 I’m having a hard time finding apps that it doesn’t work with. Firefox, paint.net, inkscape, audacity… all work. And every single application made by microsoft also works
This used to be more common ~20 years ago when Steam first launched. Most modern applications seem to have abandoned this practice though.
Afaik, this feature is part of Windows itself since Windows Vista and it works with everything. I never used anything that didn’t.
Steam did this back on WinXP in the early 2000’s as well. To be clear, OP isn’t talking about dragging a window to the very left side of the screen and it snapping in place covering half the screen. They’re referring to any sized window retaining its aspect ratio but snapping to the exact edge of any side of the screen or taskbar.
I find this behavior annoying, I actually like to place windows in corners with a small margin
What? I use windows 10 and it does this with whatever window I have open.
You’re talking about moving a window to the side to make it take up half of your display?
There’s an old program called allSnap that would do this to almost every application, dunno if it still works on newer versions of Windows or not though…
It’s a native feature in W11 now.
Okay. Including screen centered app snapping?
If only steam would shrink to half width of 1080p, so it wouldn’t overlap with discord…
Fancyzones my dude

Or if you want a partial layout, alt snap is awesome
I just wish Windows would do like Chrome OS does and give you a little detent when you move a window to the edge of the screen.
