    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

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

    Task View

    It's the Task View, not the Task Bar, that is the problem. I should be getting the popup (right clicking on Task View) showing the options for additional Desktops, not the five options for the Task Bar. A 'chat' with MS Solutions said that I should reinstall
    Windows 10 to MAYBE correct this problem. Any suggestions to correct?? Thanks for your interest...I really appreciate it.
    The Task View is the only feature that I may like on 10!!

    Task View - Windows 10

    Windows 10 task view assign applications

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    As per the description, I understand that you are facing difficulty in assigning the applications to a specific virtual desktop. Let me help you in clearing your doubts.

    The virtual desktops feature in Windows 10 is called “Task View” and is located on the Taskbar.

    I suggest you to follow the steps and check if it helps.

    Step 1: Click Task view. When you open the Task View interface for the first time, or you only have one desktop, the “Add a desktop” button is available.

    Step 2: Click it to add virtual desktop.

    Step 3: Open the apps that you want to use on that desktop.

    Step 4: Click Task view again to switch between desktops.

    Hope the information helps. Please keep us posted on Windows related query and we will be happy to assist you further.
