1. Verify your identity.
Win 10 contains a cool function, which can automatically synchronize your account and password saved on other devices. It's really exciting to think that the password just saved on the tablet can be opened on the PC in the next second. But by default, this function is not enabled on Win 10, so you need to start it first.
Verify your identity.
Notification center is the easiest way to start automatic password synchronization. After clicking the link, Win 10 will first ask your previously registered email or mobile phone, and then send it a "security code" consisting of 7 digits. If you can fill in your email address (or mobile phone) correctly and provide the corresponding security code, it means that you are the real owner of this account. All right! Password synchronization is on.
Authentication requires providing Win 10 with a complete email address or a registered mobile phone number.
2. Close the background application
Users who often play mobile phones must have heard of background application, which is a special running mode of app and can provide users with corresponding application information in time. But running in the background always consumes memory, and this thing will consume a lot of power if it is turned on for a long time, so it is necessary to limit background applications.
Win 10 adds "background application" in the "Settings → Privacy" tab, and users can freely control the running state of each application. For a simple example, if you don't rely much on the map at ordinary times, it is a good choice to turn it off.
Control background applications to save power.
3. Open Cortana (Xiao Na)
Xiao Na is the latest voice search tool in Win 10. Its biggest highlight is that it can receive voice commands from users. It takes only two steps to experience Cortana's cool features. First click on the search bar at the bottom, and then follow the prompts step by step. During the whole process, Xiao Na may ask you a few questions, such as how to address you. In short, it is not difficult to set up the operation, and then you can experience the cool service in Xiao Na.
Xiao Na opens the screenshot.
Xiao Na supports voice wake-up, and a "Hello, Xiao Na" can immediately bring up the Xiao Na search bar. Many times, you will find this experience great, at least much cooler than clicking the microphone button. Of course, this step also needs to be set. Just click Cortana→ Notebook → Settings. All right! Enjoy it slowly.
4. Download the offline map
Just like your mobile phone system, Win 10 also has a built-in map APP. So a small problem appeared, how can we go out without consuming any traffic? The answer is simple, that is, I downloaded the map in the office in advance.
This step is located in the Win 10 setup panel → System tab, and just click "Offline Map" at the bottom. The next operation is similar. Click "Download Map", and then select the country and region you want to download.
Download the required map in advance.
5. Turn off WIFI***
In order to communicate with friends conveniently, Win 10 opens a function by default, which is to set all contacts in your account as people who can * * * enjoy your WIFI. In most cases, you will find this function very useful. For example, if a few friends come to your home, turn on the computer (mobile phone) and you can surf the Internet directly, without bothering to ask for the WIFI password.
But all technologies are a double-edged sword. What if this function is applied in a public environment? Obviously, we need to put some restrictions on it. In Win 10 Settings Panel → Network and Internet "→ "WLAN "→ Manage Wi-Fi Settings, you can see related options, such as turning on or off WIFI at will * * * and even freely controlling which contacts can * * * enjoy your WiFi.
Turn off Wi-Fi awareness * * *
6. Turn off P2P update sharing
Just like many P2P download software, Win 10 has added similar functions. This function can help users greatly improve the connection speed when downloading updates (patches). In other words, the updates in Win 10 may be faster than before. Of course, if you want to achieve this step, you have to pay a little price. When you accept other people's data, you are also a data contributor. So, when everyone uses Win 10, a huge P2P network is born.
Generally speaking, this will not cause serious problems, but if you use a traffic-based network, you need to limit it a little. In Win 10 Settings → Updates and Security →“Windows Update→→ Advanced Options → Select how to provide updates, you will see an item "When this item is opened, your computer can also send some previously downloaded Windows updates and applications to computers on the local network or computers on the Internet, depending on the selection below".
Simply put, it is the master switch that controls the whole P2P update. Power on and off to stop this function. In addition, you can control whether the source of updates comes from other computers on the same LAN or from all computers on the Internet. If you use them correctly, you don't have to worry about becoming a scourge.
7. clean up the space of disk C.
If your Win 10 is upgraded from the old system, the backup file of the old system (Windows.old) will be automatically saved on the C drive. Don't underestimate these files. In most cases, their capacity will not be less than 10GB. If you don't want to return to the old system in the future, delete it.
It is easy to delete these files. Right-click the icon of drive C first, and then click Disk Cleanup → Clean System Files. In a few minutes, you can find the lost space. The only impact here is that you can't roll back to the old system in the future, but if Win 10 is strong enough, why roll back?

8. Change the wallpaper regularly
Remember the classic wallpaper changes in Win7? It's not found in Win 10 at all. In fact, this function has always been there, just changed its name. If you still like its cool design, try following me.
First open Win 10 Settings → Personalization → Background, and then click on the background in the right pane to change the picture inside into a slide show. Next, choose the album to play, and finally set the replacement frequency of pictures!
Change the wallpaper regularly.
PS: In addition to desktop wallpaper, lock screen wallpaper can also be changed regularly. The location is on the "lock screen interface" page of this page, and other methods are similar to wallpaper.
9. My menu is my decision.
Do you think the new start menu is too wordy? It is all set by Microsoft, and there is no "creative space" left for us! In fact, in Win 10, we can completely customize the start menu by setting → personalization → start. For example, whether to display "most used applications", "newly installed applications" and so on, or even you can customize which folders can be fixed on the start menu. For example, "file browser" is the most useless one. There is already the same button on the taskbar, why do you still take up space on the menu?
