– Dragging the Bar to View More Content: To resize the window and view more content, follow these simple steps:

1. Locate the window divider bar situated in the middle of the screen.
2. Hover your pointer over the bar to change it into a two-headed arrow.
3. Click and hold the left mouse button to drag the bar either up or down.
4. By moving the bar upwards, you can expand the lower window, making it easier to read your notes and histories.
