Windows 10: Cool new feature?

Dunno if I've been under a rock or what, but found this cool feature... WMP interfaced with the keyboard volume controls...

Cooling

Dear Microsoft,

Firstly sorry for my bad english. I have a question inconnection my notebook's cooling. I live in Hungary, in Central-Europe and this summer more is hotter than the other ones were ever been. My notebook is a Samsung product (NP270E5V-X03HU) and sometimes
the cpu (in my opinion) is overheeting themself up to 90°C! When I feel it's too hot, immadietely I decrease using of the performance to give chance to cool it down.

Is it possible to cool it down by an option in windows whitout a thrid party software or the only safety solution is using an other hardware, for example a notebook cooler?

Thanks for your reply.

Best regards,



p.s.: I really enjoy to use the new Windows 10.

Hi,

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community.

  Do you have the latest BIOS installed?
  

Log on to the PC manufacturer website and update the computer with the latest BIOS.

Note: Modifying BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings incorrectly can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting
from the configuring of BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Modifications of the settings are at your own risk.

Let us know if the issue persists.

 

That isn't really a new feature. My Windows 8.1 tablet has the same thing.

 

Mmmm... thanx, Nice addition *Smile

 

Hmmm is right; wasn't there on my desktop a couple days ago!

 

Almost as handy as the old WMP Toolbar, as a quick reference if anything. (I think it's aimed more at touch devices though)
Displays album art as well! *Smile

Having said that... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>What are you listening to now??

 

I've noticed that as well and for one like it.

 

Are they bringing WMP back then? Since 8 was released its been kinda disabled.

 

Comparing this to my Win 8 it seems new to me

If I use xbox music I get the above using the keyboard controls, in WMP I get no on screen display

would be nice to see a merging of xbox music/WMP

 

I see that box in Windows 8.1 when running Slacker Radio. In Media Player it's just a small volume up down on screen indication. I'm not running Windows 10 at the moment. Maybe in the new year though.

 

Hi - how did you get 'This PC' onto your desktop ? A shortcut, I guess. I only get options to pin to start.
I tried making a desktop shortcut but lots of things are greyed out.

Thanks, Edwin - must have missed that one. I'll give it a go tonight. Best, Ken.

 

Right click on the Desktop and select Personalize.
