  • Snapping window: Windows key + Left or Right — LeBlanc says: "(Can be used with UP or DOWN to get into quadrants.)" Quadrants is the new Snap view mode that pins apps to the four quarters of the screen.
  • Switch to recent window: Alt + TabLeBlanc says: "Hold shows new Task View window view, let go and switches to app."
  • Task view: Windows + TabLeBlanc says: "New Task view opens up and stays open."
  • Create new virtual desktop: Windows key + Ctrl + D
  • Close current virtual desktop: Windows key + Ctrl + F4
  • Switch virtual desktop : Windows key + Ctrl + Left or Right

The snapping window doesn't seem to be working since I upgraded to the latest build. Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?
 
Doesn't work for me either, and dragging a window usually has the older Windows 8.1 behavior (left or right half only, no quadrants).
