FancyZones
To get started with FancyZones, you need to enable the utility in PowerToys settings and then open it by pressing the Windows key + ~. After that, in the new window that appears, you’ll have to choose a layout. It’s worth mentioning that you can also create custom layouts under the Custom tab in the editor. You have two options to create custom zones layouts: window layouts and table layouts. The first starts with a blank layout and supports adding zones that can be dragged and resized. The table layout allows zones to be created by splitting and merging zones and then resizing the gutter between zones.
