Windows 10 FeaturesThe Start menuReturning the Start menu to its rightful spot in the lower left-hand corner of the desktop

Windows 10 FeaturesTask View: Get a quick glance at running appsManaging and sorting through a bunch of open windows can get annoying. Win10's Task View gives you a clean, easy-to-see view of all of your open windows — including warnings and dialog boxesTo enter Task View, click or tap the Task View icon (which looks like a box with big ears) to the right of the Search bar. Or, if your fingers are on the keyboard, press Window key + Tab. (If the icon in missing, right-click the taskbar and select "Show Task View button

Windows 10 FeaturesVirtual Desktops The better way to multitaskWhen you think about it, every Windows desktop is virtual — the only real desktop is the wooden one that holds up your monitor, keyboard, and other molecule-based stuff. But with Win10, a virtual desktop can bring order to a cluttered screen.

Page 1

Windows 10 FeaturesVirtual Desktops: To create a second desktop (the first was created when you booted Win10), open Task View and then click the + sign/New desktop icon in the lower-right corner of the screen (see Figure 2). While in Task View, you'll see — just above the taskbar — thumbnails of all running desktops. Clicking a thumbnail opens the desktop, but you can switch faster by pressing Ctrl + Win + left arrow or Ctrl + Win + right arrow.Page 2

Windows 10 FeaturesFile Explorer: Better file and folder management Almost every good operating system has basic file management — a way to find, organize, open, copy, move, and delete files. (We're still waiting, iOS.) Win7's Windows Explorer is great, but Win10's File Explorer is even better. (It's almost identical to Win8's.)

Windows 10 FeaturesTask Manager: More information; easier to read

Windows 10 FeaturesTablets“Continuum” feature that dynamically switches the interface between the PC-friendly desktop and a Windows 8-like mode that’s better suited for fingers depending on how you’re using the device.

Windows 10 FeaturesThe Edge browserForget Internet Explorer. Well, don’t forget it entirely—it’s still tucked away in a corner of Windows 10 for legacy compatibility purposes. But the star of the Internet show in Microsoft’s new operating system is clearly Edge, a brand-new browser built from the ground up for speed, slickness, and trawling the modern web.

Summary

If you upgrade you can roll back to your previous version of Windows within 30 days.110 Million devices updated so far.

The bottom line: Even on systems without a touchscreen, there are good reasons to upgrade to Win10 — especially since it’s free.

Impulsively upgrading your operating system is never a good idea, especially when the OS is still new and has a few kinks — such as support for old hardware — that need to be straightened out.
