The Start Menu<\/strong>\n<p>For you Windows 7 users, rest easy, because this is here to stay. For the Windows 8<br>\nusers, the start menu is back with its full functionality \u2013 and then some. The aesthetics of<br>\nthe new start menu combine the basics of the start menu from Windows 7 with the<br>\nsleek\u00a0tiles that were a part of Windows 8. The customization of this helps you to access<br>\nwhat you need much faster and boosts productivity. Open the Start Menu, click on<br>\nSettings, Personalization, and then Start. Make the Start Menu work for you.

Click in the search bar right next to it, and type<br>\n\u201cDefault Programs.\u201d Open that up, find Internet Explorer on the left, and click on it. There<br>\nwill now be an option to click that states \u201cSet this program as default.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Search Enhancements<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Find anything on your PC. No, really.

If it doesn\u2019t automatically populate, click on the \u201cMy Stuff\u201d<br>\nicon on the bottom of that pop-up window. Your machine will be scanned for files,<br>\napplications, pictures \u2013 just about anything \u2013 containing any or all of that search term<br>\nwithin that file name.
