The Best New Features of Windows 10
Windows 10 finally arrives! While the roll out will come in waves, we’ve been running the Insider Preview for months. Here are some of the best features you can look forward to when you decide to upgrade.
The Start Menu:
The Icon based organization has been left behind in favor of a favorites search
based organization. You can start typing as soon as you open the Start menu to find an app and launch it by name. You can click All Apps to see a list of everything that’s in your Start Menu, though it will show up as an alphabetical list that may be hard to sift through if you’re used to folders.
You Can Add Multiple Desktops
Microsoft is finally adding the ability to create and manage multiple desktops. You can add new desktops, quickly move windows between them, and jump between desktops by pressing Win-Tab.
Windows Now Has a Central Notification Center:
The notification tray also has links to various useful features like the Windows 10 Settings app, Other settings, and quick toggles for things like location and Quiet Mode. If you have a Windows connected to a touchscreen, there’s also a button to quickly switch between and tablet modes.
