I'm using Windows 10 on a HP laptop. I want to create a split screen with a website on Firefox on one half and Excel on the other half. Using the multipage icon isn't helping.

Hello pitter1000,

Would you give this a try :

When you're on Excel, click on the minus button (upper right corner). Then open the Firefox page you want to visit and press the Windows key + either the left of right arrow button on your keyboard. Then maximize Excel (as it will show up on the other half of the page).

Works for me when I'm on Word and another site - ' hope it'll work for you as well (I'm on Windows 10 .... )
