  2. Do not want to use Cortana and want to customize the desktop in classic mode in Windows 10.

    Hi Fels,

    Before assisting further, could you please clarify if you mean Classic theme or Classic mode?



    You can disable Cortana and search by following the steps below:



    • Right click on the taskbar and hover the mouse over to
      Cortana option.

    Windows 10 Classic View not found

    For Windows 10, Microsoft lists the following way to use the Classic View (as in Windows 7):

    To change the Start menu to Classic view

    The classic view of Start menu is based on previous version of Windows.


    • Open Taskbar and Start Menu Properties by clicking the Start button

      , clicking
      Control Panel, clicking Appearance and Personalization, and then clicking
      Taskbar and Start Menu.

    • Click the Start Menu tab, click Classic Start menu, and then click
      OK.

    That sounds OK, except that in the latest version of Windows 10 "Appearance and Personalization" is not found in the Control Panel--only "Personalization," without an option for Classic Start menu, is given. So what has Microsoft failed to say or update?

    I realize that third party apps (to give a Windows 7 experience) are available, but I would like to know what Microsoft itself offers in terms of the Classic View.

    Similarly, in Windows 10 is there a way to add folders to the C-drive in the classic way, as opposed to creating a folder in Desktop under This PC and then adding folders there? (I do not want to go to Desktop, then a Desktop folder, every time that I want
    to view or create a folder--those are tiresome extra steps compared to the Classic way of creating a folder on the C-drive.)
