Can one big monitor be split into two screens?

Got a 34 inch ultrawide and want to use it like two separate displays, one for email and one for spreadsheets. Snapping windows works but isn't quite the same. Is there a proper way to do this in Windows 11?

sort of. Windows will happily put two windows side by side: Win+Left and Win+Right, or on Windows 11 hover over the maximise button and pick a layout. for custom splits, PowerToys has FancyZones, you draw the zones yourself. if you mean Windows actually seeing two separate displays, that only happens if the monitor has picture-by-picture (PBP) and you run two cables to it. a lot of ultrawides have it, check the monitor's menu.
