Regarding the Start Menu - You didn't show that the apps can be grouped into folders of like functions. Give it a go. This way you can have work/task related folders. Like for IT activity - Put all IT Management tools/apps into one IT Tools folder.

To create a Start Menu Folder - Take one app and overlay it on another. It will create a New Folder. You can then name the folder and begin to add other apps as required. Very handy!!! I think.

One tip for Windows 10 that I always use is going to privacy and security in settings, then background apps and I switch off all the background apps. I find it helps a lot with performance.

One thing you can do if you're lazy and don't feel like changing the document type when saving in Notepad is putting the filename and extension in quotation marks. It will then override the default .txt save. So, typing "DoIt.cmd" even with the save as type set to txt will still yield the file being saved as a command batch file. :)

Make your computer a little more Mac like…

I turn that off on my Mac. Maybe making my Mac a little more Windows like? 😂

Good tips and love your videos!

A lot of us don't like the Windows start menu. We liked the W7 version, wshich we can recreate with "Classic Shell."

6:30 can also be done by pressing windows key+D, it works to both minimize and maximizes. I remember that in Win 7 you could also hover over the button to glimpse the desktop, it would show the borders of all windows, but you could see the desktop through them. it didnt look like it does this anymore.

Battery life in High Performance directly contributes to the battery expansion issue that all lithium-ion batteries eventually have. restrict usage of the high performance setting and don't leave the device plugged in overnight if you don't have to.

Cool video! I didn't know about the start menu backup trick but I still prefer to use Open Shell as I find it easier to get to the legacy control panel apps and I like that I can search in "all programs". Looking forward to the next video!

Win+D will also toggle showing the desktop.

Thanks for sharing the tips. It would be easier if export directly with a batch file too.
---batch-file-start----
reg export DefaultAccount.reg /y
xcopy /s/Y DefaultLayouts.xml
---batch-file-ends---
"HKCU" stands for "HKEY_CURRENT_USER" - So you have two batch-files to backup and restore the startmenu fast as possible.

High performance doesnt do anything but increase power and does nothing with the hardware so you getting heat and same performance. Balance means running normally and it will request power when needed.

The most usefull thing (to me, all the tips are good though) this video brought, was honestly the link to get the discounted keys. That has helped so much. So thank you.

hahaaa i upgraded to 11 with you, and backed up to 10 with you. very very good clear information the whole way!

For the power plan thing, i actually use this in group policy because windows 10 and 11 removed much of the group policy object options for controlling the clockspeed, when i've got 36 laptops in a closed cart, i dont want them peeling off the paint and stickers with all of the heat from 288 cores running at 4.2Ghz because the scheduled updates just started installing.

It is nice that you can have different behaviors between lid open, and lid closed, i just wish we could do the same with clockspeeds and that RAM were also variable, i'd love to have the CPU clock to 1.2Ghz, and RAM down to 800 from 3200MT/s

One other thing about that DVD (or .ISO of Windows), one can perform an "upgrade install" to repair things & will often fix many issues w/out reinstalling software. That is, as long as the computer will boot to begin with. It's also how I actually do my upgrades, can use the automated installer do so, but this is usually faster. Does require a few updates, as most of these released prior will download in background.
