Corner Navigation

    • Quick App Switch: Charms
      • Mouse: When I click the upper-left corner, switch between my recent apps
      • Keyboard: Windows Key + Tab
      • Win Tab
    • Charms Bar
      • Mouse: When I point to the upper-right corner, show the charms.  You will still get charms using bottom-right corner.  This setting is to avoid disturbance if you are using Close button of desktop apps image .
      • Keyboard: Windows + I

 

    • Default to PowerShell:
      • Mouse: Bring the Windows Power User Menu by using Right click, you can set the Power.  It is good idea to start using Powershell instead of command prompt.
      • Keyboard: Windows + X
      • Powershell

Start Screen

  • Default Modern UI / Desktop?: You can set your preferred mode as start screen, between Desktop (Icons) and Modern UI Start screen (Tiles)
  • Wallpaper as Modern UI background: You can have the same or different wall paper between Modern UI Start Menu and Desktop.
  • Windows Tiles / App list as start screen:  You can switch between Modern Tiles vs App list as your default likst
  • Search default Apps / Everywhere
    • search
  • List Desktop apps first: When all the Apps list you can bring the Desktop to first.
