If you’ve finally upgraded your computer’s software or unpacked a new machine and started Windows 10 for the first time, there are a few things you need to know.
First, start with your settings and sign in with your Microsoft account to sync both of your previous settings from previous versions of Windows, and make sure that the settings that you adjust in the future are also synced. If you have never created a Microsoft account, we recommend that you do so now. Then go ahead and install the updates that are available. There can be more than a few, so it’s best to deal with it now.
From Settings, you can also participate in the Windows Insider program. This is nice if you want to get a taste of the beta features that Microsoft is testing, but if you do not like living on the edge, you can skip it.
Now is the time to personalize your operating system with some basic adjustments. Check first Show and switch on Nag lig mode so that the color temperature of your screen will adjust during dusk and sunrise. Then go to Notifications and alerts to eliminate annoying Microsoft tips to get the best out of Windows or whatever. Skip to Storage and switch on Save Sense to keep your system clean. After installing the necessary programs, click on Taskbar settings and select “Choose which icons appear in the taskbar” to keep things organized. Under Programs, choose Start-up to select which programs start automatically when you start your computer (for the obvious reasons, keep them to a minimum).
