Windows Technical Preview  

Welcome to Tech Preview

Tech Preview is the first pre-release build of the next version of Windows. As a key element of our new approach to software development and delivery, this preview is different from previous releases in four key ways: 1. Instead of a full build, this preview is a subset of what’s to come. 2. We’re releasing bits at earlier stages of the development process. 3. With the participation of more users around the world, we’re expecting the most robust set of feedback we’ve ever had. 4. We’re delivering updates in an ongoing cycle of development-feedback-refinement, making development a joint effort between developers and users. 

How it works 

The trip to encounter Tech Preview is a two-organize process. It starts when you agree to accept the Windows Insider 

Program and proceeds with the download of Windows Technical Preview or Windows Technical Preview for 

Undertaking. 

Stage 1: Windows Insider Program 

By enlisting in the Windows Insider Program, you'll get the majority of the most recent Windows review works when they're accessible,

start with the download of Tech Preview. This implies you'll be one of the first to encounter the most recent 

advancements from our building labs. 

As a Windows Insider, you'll be a piece of a voyage that isn't completely scripted: Some highlights might be startling or not 

completely rendered, and there's no certification that what you see will be a piece of the last form. Yet, there are two things you 

can rely on: You'll be among the first to encounter the fabricates, and the information you give will be considered in 

item improvement choices. 

Stage 2: Windows Technical Preview 

Subsequent to turning into an Insider, you're prepared to download Windows Technical Preview, or Windows Technical Preview for 

Endeavor in case you're an IT expert. This will fill in as the benchmark and will enable you to get refreshed bits as they move toward becoming 

accessible. 

It's not for everybody. In any case, on the off chance that you like partaking in the improvement procedure – and you need to enable us to construct the best 

Windows yet – we need you to go along with us. Go ahead board as an Insider and download Tech Preview at

The familiar Start menu is back, with some improvements, including a space you can personalize with your favourite apps, programs, people and websites.

Click on your account name to change your account picture, lock your device or sign out of your account.

1.3 Quick links and frequently used apps 

On the left side of the Start menu, you’ll find quick links to PC settings, Documents and File Explorer at the top. The section just below that lists your most recently used apps and programs. If you see an arrow next to a program, move your mouse over it to see a list of your recently used files for that program.

1.4 All apps 

Click All Apps to see all your apps and programs listed alphabetically. Looking for a specific app? Just type it in the search box

1.5 Search

Search across your device, your cloud storage on OneDrive, and across the Web at the same time. Simply open the Start menu and type in the search box — Windows search will do the rest. You can also open search directly from the taskbar; click Search and start typing.

1.6 Pin your favourite apps

Pin apps, programs and folders to the Start menu for fast access to the things you use the most. Apps with Live Tiles will show updates for the people and things that matter. Click Start, select All Apps, right-click the app you want to pin, and then select Pin to

Once pinned, your app will show up as a tile on the right. Right-click the tile to change its size. Drag and drop to move it around. Don’t worry about running out of space — the Start menu will automatically resize to hold everything

Before you start, be sure to save your work. You’ll need to sign out of Windows to complete this change. 1) Click Start, type navigation properties, and then select it from the search results. 2) Click the Start menu tab, clear the Use the Start menu instead of the Start screen check box, and then click OK. 3) In the prompt, click Sign out and change settings. 4) Your device will restart. Sign in again, and then click Start to open the full Start screen

2. Apps run in a window 

Apps from the Windows Store now open in the familiar format that your desktop programs do — you can resize and move around, and they have title bars at the top so you can maximize, minimize and close with a click. Click the app’s options button to do basic things like search, share, print or change settings. Select App Commands from the drop-down menu for even more options; the options you see will vary by app.
