hello everyone thank you so much for coming over to watch this video my
name is selling Alan Hernandez with DP Computing
and today guys I'd like to get you in on
and overview basically on the Windows
8.1 update
okay and so Microsoft
decided to release this update to be able to make improvements
to the Windows 8 edition to
basically bring back
some of the concerns that many of the windows
8 users were having compared to
the windows seven edition and also
many of these improvements are basically two-fold with a
focus on performance design,
features and ecosystem
and so what I want to do basically is give you an
overview on each of these options
just to get you to see the difference
and so most of the things that I'm going to cover
will be obvious ones that take you inside
you going to see the difference from the windows
8.0 to the Windows 8.1
and so in many of the
other improvements are going to be basically
throughout the windows are
edition you know like the settings
the way that you can personalize your windows
I'll where all the navigation all the menu options all the buttons
things of that nature will have huge improvement
but the fact that there is so much that we can cover in detail
I decided to only cover 5
of the most popular and I wanted to do these just so that we can make videos
short.
okay and give you the most popular so
with the first one we're gonna talk about the start button. A lot of people had
this concern and lot of people made a big
deal about the star button and so
I'll 8.0 is going to give you know is the ability to now simply
have the option to click on the Start button
but instead of having the menu option come up like on Windows seven
you when she was basically switch between the star screen and
your desktop but you doing now
these through the start button as it used to be on Windows XP, Windows Vista
and Windows seven but is a little bit more
animated and has a lot more
beauty to effect to it if you will and so
and other than that you are going to notice right now I have my
taskbar to be hidden so when I move over among mouse it is going to display my
task bar. And when it oes this it is going to now see the
start button is down there if I do not do it this way to simply
Automatic captions now follow. We are working on getting proper caption added. move over the males obviously you will never see my taskbar you will just see
this star so there you have it for many of you who were concerned about
upgrading to Windows aid are because of the start button
now with the 8.1 update which is free by the way
I you can get that feeling back to feature back
that you used to own Windows XP Vista
and said so less their number one
I'll just talk about number two okay
and the number two is called to be the fame is
star scream I so with the Star Screen basically
what you gonna be able to do now is personalized in little more
to fit your knees and you can also customize a
a lot better and soul you can now
organize the applications in groups and this will help you
customized ames a bit better so let me show you what I like to hear all my
screen how also want to basically put my name
all these particular applications and then I'd eat all the marc Dorcel
publications
then I have my social media then all the other programs and asked that I use
all the news *** entertainment gaming
Excel and you can continue to create as many in groups as many categories from
whatever you want to call them
as you 1 and this is going to be
basically organized aim Group
so for example let's say that I want them all
this particular up into the center here if you can see what I'm doing
I can now basically right click on the background
customize and then give is
and name and so you can do this *** long-lost father
down as you 1 I'm not going to do this because this is a markers of
publications on the keepin on BER
monarch herself anytime that you want in creating new group
already the name of the one you already have simply right-click on it
customize it and there you have she can simply
added the name change the name or simply delete that particular group
that will be up to you when you're done right click on the background
twice and it will make it go away so that was a huge improvement from the old
a ponerle screen
arm versus the 8.1 are
these feature was added these is one of the improvements are
men that Windows 8.1 will do you
and another thing to also keep in mind is it fun right click here
miss you something really quick use you can basically go inside
the option here where you will help the list of all the programs and
applications
that the Windows you know your computer will have
and sold these option he will work just like
looking at the list of programs on the Start menu
are you know own XP Vista or seven
instead you will have a complete list
which again you can also basically
customized your list as well if you wish
so if you can see these are all his side by side applications we have
these particular company are AVG
Battlefield game a contests studio so everything is going to be basically
are terrorize you know differently so although he has to do with for example
are markers all all those applications will be
on third that group similar to what you will see
on your actual scream I'll star scream for yourself this is your own the home
page if you will
are you also have a similar look
are through and in this list here another thing that was
also added on the ape online
is that you able to now narrow down and sore
your search by name but a installed
most-used in category so that's
basically the Star Screen I you have a lot more improvement for you to be able
to personalize it
in organizing customized your way
and soul best going to be number two now
number three is going to be these search
feature all the windows this was something that they basically
what they decided to do and what I mean day i'm talking about my purse all
day decided to basically I'll
bill you look put put being and built a
in the windows 8.1 addition
with the update that you going to get and so how this works is basically like
anything that use search for
will basically be I'll through
%uh several different options and we're talking about settings
files where images and videos
but also everywhere mean that he's going to focus
eat your computer and also on the web
using being and soul this is going to you look great
experience with searching for something because he's got to basically search
inside your computer data your settings your files your images but also
online letting you decide what you want political support sample

a file a excel file was talks about is related to
our social media marketing in this Google
