Windows 10 Simple and Awesome Features!.
Windows 10 has several good features, many of which users are not aware of. This is a quick and short post about the Notifications area of Windows 10! Microsoft saw the Notifications area as Prime Realestate and surprisingly never made proper use of it!
If you have the most recent version of Windows 10 your Notifications are should look something like the menu in the image to the right. We will go over a few of the options based on their actually useability.
- Bluetooth: Computer users, in general, didn’t have easy access to Bluetooth settings. With the Bluetooth button on the menu, you can easily toggle Bluetooth On and Off. I use it a lot when I connect my earphones to my laptop!
- Night Light: This is one nifty tool! It reduces eye strain immensely for users who spend a lot of time on computers. The trick is, always keep it on!! It really does help.
- Project: If you like and enjoy working on large screens, this allows you to connect your computer to a TV over WiFi. The caveat is, the TV needs to support this function and both the computer and TV should be on the same network.
- VPN: for all you remote users, this provides easy access to your VPN connection.
- Focus Assist: You are on a tight deadline to submit a proposal? or you are presenting to clients? Manage all notifications using Focus Assist.
- Screen Snip: This is one of my favorites. It allows you to easily take screenshots and save them or paste them into another file! It’s easy to use and once you get used to it, you will never use any other snipping tool.
