Imao. You are using Microsoft Windows so you are expected to use the MS services as well. At least Microsoft should respect people's default browser. Currently, they don't.
An added feature they should add to that secret menu is security and privacy so you can stop Microsoft from spying on you and collect your personal data
Just got a new Gaming PC. It took couple hours to download all updates and Windows 11 to it. Had to come here and watch some of the best features of it. Thanks!!
Dude after 1 week of this start bar in the centre im starting to consider getting the old corner start bar back. Why does my whole UA-cam video or Facebook feed need to be completely blocked just because I wanted to bring up a quick app from start menu such as calculator or paint. Bottom left corner was waaaaay less intrusive of my screen
thanks for the lesson. anyone can buy a computer but we cant use it! they usually sit at that point. its about time this old man learns how to use windows
pov: u started watching him wen his already on a mil edit: sorry for not being on the journey i'm just a kid and i just got started on this Windows customization thing.
Let's say you have 7 virtual desktops open. Instead of doing WINDOWS KEY-CTRL-LEFT ARROW or WINDOWS KEY-CTRL-RIGHT ARROW how about WINDOWS KEY-CTRL-1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 to jump to your desired virtual desktop that you have open? In addition we would do WINDOWS KEY-CTRL-F (FOR THE 1ST VIRTUAL WINDOW) and do WINDOWS KEY-CTRL-L (FOR THE LAST VIRTUAL WINDOWS). All this to jump around quicker.
Having a desktop for work, play, etc..... would be the ultimate feature...... Kinda makes you wonder why they didn't put that feature in in the first place huh? great video.....
Again liked ur win 11 updates/ secret start is also on win 10... I love ur microsoft updates boss... U hv explored so much n really thank u for enlightening us with new updates 👍
I updated mine last night to windows 11 and it just finished today 😊 I love the fresh look and I'm excited to learn about the new features ❤ so far I don't have any issues, so this is good
Kevin can you please put a video on the photo editor Gimp because that will be helpful for people who is looking for the best free alternative for Adobe Photoshop.
I wish that a new desktop meant that files could be placed there and they not show up on the other desktops. So, what I mean is, a "Work desktop" could have icons that are only seen there and not on the other desktops. For me, I do have a lot of icons on my desktop, and it would help in organizing them. Also, when I am using my CPU for leisure I wouldn't have to look at work icons and be reminded of work activities. Lol! Always great and infirmities videos Kevin.
@@mrankin2825 LOL! Yes, I know that, and some are. My point was, it would be nice to customize and have a clean desktop with whatever icons/apps you want. To have a desktop completely separate for each area of your life.
Wow, Kevin! You keep teaching me new things to play with - Widgets?? Can't wait to read my old document paper copies back into my new computer. Or, I could scan them. This looks like more fun.
Hi Kevin - love your videos. For this one, I'm a very basic user/writer so I don't use a whole lot, but I love the dictation feature, with the added punctuation. That was my favorite!
Does Snap groups only apply to browser windows...what if you had an excel, a word and file explorer open,where would the snap window be accessible in the taskbar?
Will there be a option to have different icons on different desktops? I mean, it seems to have almost no usage when you can't have different things on desktop, i would like to have for example some folders on second desktop, so i can use it when i need and it doesn't fill the first desktop at the same time. Hope we will get that option in future
Exactly. I thought that would be an obvious use for having different desktops. I was disappointed when I found out you couldn't do this and add different shortcuts, folders etc to different desktops... let alone not even being able to separate them on a second monitor.
Congratulations on 800K subscribers, Kevin!!! It's been an amazing journey so far. Hope you grow faster after this incredible milestone to reach 1 million.
I'm facing an issue. While I change the background wallpaper on my second desktop it changes both with it and not only the second one. I'm choosing a specific picture (not solid color or slideshow). Any ideas?
Loved your suggestion about new desktops projected to different screens. I think MS should seriously consider it, there must be a way to get this idea to MS developers
Things...I learnt from this video, That Dictation tool with punctuation marks👌, and That window key + ; key combination to open the emojis section🤯...Both were so helpful in my daily work, Kevin, I wanna hug you man ❤️❤️
Very helpful video, thanks! Without the option to customize the taskbar, what is the actual point of having multiple desktops? Hopefully there is a workaround by now.
Hi Kevin I REALLY APPRECIATE With YOUR teaching and I have problem with my Microsoft surface pro x with Bitcloker and recovery washing so can you help me with that thank you.
I don't know if it's just mine win 11 but the widgets menu is too small and widgets on the right side are cut in half. Is it fixible or is it just because it's a preview version?
QUESTION: first, I like the desktops and snapping customization. Once you place your desktops, applications in their snaps locations as we like them.... Q: HOW can you SAVE those applications, desktop settings and configuration so you can startup this way.. Seems every morning I will have to open apps and put them into all their individual places. I would love to see Windows Desktops provide configuration control to build desktops for productivity based on different projects and save them to startup.. If that is possible, I don't know how yet. Q: How can you save the desktop configuration setup preferences.
Hi kevin, how to add toolbars in windows 11. I have a habbit to add folder as toobar to easy copy the documents on email as well as open files easily. Plz let me know if you have a solution for this. Thank you.
where is the function to organise apps in folders (e.g. in desktop or in pinned tiles)? e.g. all media apps in one folder, all office apps in one folder, dictionnaries and converters in one folder. I could not find out how to do this in w11.
Sorry for my English. I am from Argentina. Thanks for the tips. One Question. How do you put the icon of widgets on the middle of the taskbar instead of the left side?
Hi Kevin, great review... as usual. May I ask how to Pin to Task Bar the Word, Excel, PowerPoint in Windows 11?, I cannot find the file location where I can create the short cut for putting them on the Task Bar, thank you Kevin. From Ryo, Indonesia
Is the Control Panel refined to look more modern than the old Windows XP Control Panel on Windows 11? Or are there still some of those super old windows in the back?
Hi Kevin, Thanks for all the useful info. But I am not finding what I am looking for. How can I have an arrow pointing and moving with a moving object like pointing to a boat and show it's course throughout the race. Would you please let me know how I can do that, or point me to the video that you've already made, covering this subject. Thank you.
Great video man. That first one alone helped me a lot. I'm using the voice with the auto punctuation in it right now. You can select something in settings that has it where it works on anything. Awesome.
Can u tell me which is the FAN contol app that u are using .....because i wanted to control my laptop's fan ...but i am not getting an app to do that....
I recently upgraded to Windows 11 without any problems. But my Notepad doesn't display the dictation, settings options. Is this because I live in New Zealand where Contana is not available? Cheers
The most awesome feature that I want is the option to not using Bing.
You are Right
Imao. You are using Microsoft Windows so you are expected to use the MS services as well.

Nothing is wrong with Bing. Even duck duck go
I like the snapping features. It might just make it way easier to arrange several items in a more orderly fashion than we can now.

Snapping windows is a killer! For multitasking. I always use it :)
As a convinced Windows user, I have to say that widgets are hardly useful and must therefore be hidden in the settings

Good one Kevin, I have registered as insider and now sharing my suggestions
The thumbnail, the video, the features!?! All epic! Really exciting vid Kevin :)
Thanks a lot and Congrats for 800K (in advance)
I would love to see the start button in the centre of taskbar among all apps, would look more elegant that way
But would it be functional, tho?
@@totoshampoin why not, a central position would also be more natural and convenient for touch devices
Personally I prefer it in the lower left corner due to the shape of the monitor but I understand where you're coming from.

thanks for the lesson. anyone can buy a computer but we cant use it! they usually sit at that point. its about time this old man learns how to use windows
The 2nd function can be done in windows 10. To do that, we have to just press windows key + Tab key
But you can't customize those desktops
OMG! Congratulations on 800K Subs. Getting so close to a million. Well deserved Milestone to such a great man. You hitting 800K actually made my day.
Isn’t that awesome?!!! “today” (in Kevin’s voice 😉) 7/14/2021 he is at 826k ♥️♥️👏🏽🙏🏽

The best part is u dont waste viewers time n jump to topic and hv kept it short n simple ...any one can understand 👏👏👏👏👏
Kevin, does Windows 11 have any default screen recorder (with good features) like macOS has 'command + shift + 5' ? Any plan to make a video on this?
WinKey + G

Does Snap groups only apply to browser windows...what if you had an excel, a word and file explorer open,where would the snap window be accessible in the taskbar?
The minimize buttons/also can be done via Windows key + the corresponding arrow key.

Couldn’t you just in theory drag all the icons you wanted over to your second monitor manually?
can you tell me if it's possible to change the web browser the Weather widget uses?? I really don't like using M edge, and would rather use Firefox.
Seen a few of your videos. As always, great presentation.
Gotta go a long way to do a Google search.
Thank you very much for the video.
I noticed something, you have only four snap layout options, while some users have six of them
I believe it depends on the screen size and resolution. The larger the screen, the more options that are exposed.

Secret start menu is also available on Windows 10 and shortcut key is WIN + X... btw, loved the video ❤
That snapping feature is key for me, would have never known about it if it wasn't for the video, makes grading (I'm a teacher) a lot easier to input.
Hi thank you for another great video. I have a question, what’s the purpose of snapping?
Great tips. I used to use Stardock Fences at my old company but changed employer and the new on doesn’t have this. My desktop is a mess. Any advice?

Is the Control Panel refined to look more modern than the old Windows XP Control Panel on Windows 11? Or are there still some of those super old windows in the back?
There are still a few older windows hidden in back, although it’s still a preview build so that may change before release.
Does it work with different apps or it must be the same app? (snap groups)
For example, I want it to auto snap my email, Excel and chrome.
Snap groups work with a variety of apps simultaneously. You’ll see the group on the task bar under any app that is part of the group.
I noticed that you have your windows calendar in your widgets. How did you add this? The only option I am given is my widgets is the outlook calendar.
