window

Short Definition
A section of a computer’s screen that displays content from an application or file. Multiple windows can be open at the same time, allowing for multitasking.
Relevance
Windows refer to how multiple programs or pieces of content are displayed on a screen, allowing users to view and switch between tasks. Knowing how to manage windows—such as resizing, minimizing, or organizing them—helps users navigate complex screen-based interfaces more efficiently, improving their ability to multitask and organize their digital workspace.
