Anyone searching for a solution to optimize their workflow by improving control over windows and layouts
About FancyZones
FancyZones is a window manager utility for arranging and snapping windows into efficient layouts to improve the speed of your workflow and restore layouts quickly. FancyZones allows you to define a set of zone locations to be used as targets for Windows on your desktop. When you drag a window into a zone or enter the associated keyboard shortcut, the window is resized and repositioned to fill that zone. You can also trigger zone selection mode by clicking the non-primary mouse button if the "Use non-primary mouse button to toggle zone activation" setting is enabled. If two zones are adjacent, a window can be snapped to the sum of their area (rounded to the minimum rectangle that contains both). When the mouse cursor is near the common edge of two zones, both zones are activated simultaneously, allowing you to drop the window into both zones. You can drag the window until one zone is activated, then press and hold the control key while dragging the window to select multiple zones.

WS Grid+
WS Grid+ is an accessible window manager for Windows 10. It helps you make order out of many chaotic program windows scattered across your screen. It lets you move and/or resize the active window using a grid selection system. It also provides keyboard/mouse shortcuts to instantly move and resize a window with no need to reach for its title bar. Finally, it gives you useful shortcuts to the Windows 10 virtual desktops feature. Double-tap key CTRL (or ALT + F1) to open/move the panel at/to the current mouse pointer's location. Use the mouse to make a grid selection. The active application window will duplicate the chosen relative position and size. Press CTRL while clicking on a grid cell to only change the window's position and leave its size as-is. Press the key ESC to close the panel (no focus needed). Resize the active window to preset dimensions and reposition to make it completely visible if needed.
