How to Open App in New Tab for Sets in Windows 10




Warning Sets is no longer available in Windows 10.

Sets shell provided tab experience is no more in Windows 10


Microsoft had Windows Insiders as a controlled study. The concept behind Sets is to make sure that everything related to your task: relevant webpages, research documents, necessary files and applications, is connected and available to you in one click. Office (starting with Mail & Calendar and OneNote), Windows, and Edge become more integrated to create a seamless experience, so you can get back to whats important and be productive, recapturing that moment, saving time Microsoft believes thats the true value of Sets.

Sets: With all the elements that go into a task, sometimes convincing yourself to get started is the hardest part. Sets help you keep webpages, documents, files, and apps connected, while remaining just one click away. When you close a file that includes a group of tabs, itll help you bring those tabs back to life the next time you open it. Whether its something you pick up later in the day or in a couple weeks, Sets is being designed to help you keep the important things together.

Add tabs to apps: To help fuel Sets, most apps will be able to add app and web tabs. When you select a link in something like an e-mail, itll open in a new tab next to the app you were using. Selecting the plus (+) in an app will take you to a new tab page, which will help you jump to your next location. You might already know where you want to go, or just need a little bit of inspiration. From here, youll be able to search your PC and the internet, access customized feeds, open frequently used websites and apps, and get suggestions based on your recent activity.

Here are a few keyboard shortcuts you can try out:

• Win+Ctrl+Tab – Switch to the next tab
• Win+Ctrl+Shift+Tab – Switch to the previous tab
• Win+Ctrl+1 through 8 – Switch to a specific tab
• Win+Ctrl+9 – Switch to the last tab
• Ctrl+Win+T – Open a new tab
• Ctrl+Win+W – Close the current active tab

Starting with Windows 10 build 17682, you can now launch apps directly from the New tab page in a Sets window. When you click the plus button in a Sets window, you will now see apps included in your frequent destinations list. Youll also find that weve integrated the all apps list into this page so you can browse your apps, rather than just using the search box apps that support Sets will launch into a tab when clicked.

This tutorial will show you how to directly open an app from the New tab page in a Sets window in Windows 10.



Here's How:

1. While you have a Sets window open, click/tap on the plus button or press the Ctrl+Win+T keys to open a new tab. (see screenshot below)



2. Click/tap on the Apps link at the bottom to switch to the all apps list. (see screenshot below)



3. Click/tap on the app (ex: "Feedback Hub") you want to open in this new tab. (see screenshots below)





4. The app will now open in the current tab. (see screenshot below)




That's it,
Shawn

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”

Open settings of Windows 8 App

Hi Thomas,

In response to your query, please be informed that Windows 10 is in the list of supported operating system for Modern Reader. Also, the swipe from the right option is for Windows 8 and 8.1 therefore, that step will not open the settings. However, most
apps have their own settings, therefore, I suggest you to look for a gear icon in the app and check if you are able to find the option you are looking for.

Let us know if you need further assistance.
