Try to press the Windows key + Arrow keys on an active window and see if the snap assist works.
If still not, some have reported that zooming in and out fixed the Snap issues. You can go to Settings > System > Display and under "Change the size of text, apps and other items", change it to 125% then change it back to 100%.
If that still didn't fix the problem, you can run diagnostics using System File Checker and DISM.

Check options two and three to make sure that Snap Assist is turned on from the Control Panel and Registry.

If all options are already enabled there, does your computer have tablet mode? If so, try to disable it to see if it Snap Assist will work.
