6 Hidden Features in Windows 10

Take a look at these hidden features in Windows 10. Windows 10 is a brand new operating system, and that means that many of us haven't had the time to discover some of its best features.

This video will show you some of those awesome features.

Close, not so close, close, not so close, close, not s.. That's one cheezy effect right there :D
Tried upside down? Very cool too.

I found a great hidden feature myself... Click Start > Settings > Update & security, and then select Recovery in the left of the window. Look in the right of the window and you should see an option for Go back to Windows 7 or 8 :) YAY!

"Cortana will only be available if you are signed in using a Microsoft account"
Yes, and only if you live in the USA, Great Britain, France or Germany.

The word hidden implies that it was meant to not be seen... lol. These are just features that aren't obvious to people who aren't familiar with Windows as a whole.

thanks for showing those features... also, windows 10 should have a feature to change folders as easily as FolderChanger. It can be found when googling "folderchanger"

Im sick of people exaggerating Windows 10's privacy issues. You cant have a context-aware operating system if your not willing to provide the context. There are very good reasons that data is collected, to do with improved user experience, integrated knowledgeable AI and other aspects. PEOPLE, without information on YOU how do you expect windows to create a personal experience that is beneficial to you? This is progress, and it requires information. mk my rant is done :) have a nice day

I know that you can't do all the hidden things in Windows 10 but it's appreciated that you showed some of the most useful ones.

Thanks

I'm glad I came across your video, because I'm having problems with Win 10 since I installed it. I tried finding help at the Help page & the MS forum, but the two replies I got, told me to look up the answer at the Help page!!
My one main problem is that I can not sign in with my MS ID, thus unable to use a lot of the apps! I get a message telling me that says "something went wrong" & "the device is unable to connect online".
Would you have a solution to this? Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks.

Operating systems should be device specific. An operating system for hand-helds, an OS for desktops, etc.  Operating systems should also be age and ability specific.  An OS for children, an OS for the highly literate, an OS for people who like pictures...

i see you didn't tell people about the update setting that should be changed so Windows isn't sending and getting updates from machines all over the Internet.

As soon as I saw that back months ago and the bizarre privacy settings and data collection I immediately went back to Windows 7. The best version of Windows ever.

Here are some ways you can sync things from your smartphone to PC. Want to get notifications from your phone onto your PC? Download Cortana on your smartphone and when both are signed into the same account go into the Cortana settings, cross devices, and choose what you want to sync. Talking about syncing if you download Edge on your mobile device and it is again signed into the same account you can beam website tabs from your mobile device to PC. With Firefox, you can do this both ways.

Cortanna is not a Hidden feature. It's spyware.
