Desktop Icons
Once you have signed in, the first thing you will see is the desktop.
You can think of the desktop as the main workspace for your
computer. From here, you can view and manage your files, open
applications, access the Internet, and much more. A desktop may also
refer to any of the following: o A desktop is a term commonly used to
describe a desktop computer or system unit. o When referring to an
operating system or GUI (graphical user interface), the desktop is a
system of organization of icons on a screen. The Microsoft Windows
desktop was first introduced with Microsoft Windows 95 and included
with every version of Windows since then. The image below is an
example of the Microsoft Windows 10 desktop.

Icons and Items on the Windows
Desktop
Common Icons
Some of the most
common icons on the
desktop include those for
My Computer, Recycle Bin,
your Internet browser
(e.g., Internet Explorer),
and My Documents.
Sorting Icons
The icons on the desktop
can be sorted so it is easy
to find them. This is a
good way to group
programs together that
you use a lot.
Hide or Show Icons
Like previous versions of
Windows, some of
desktop icons are visible
by default in Windows 10.
But you can also hide your
desktop icons, and show
them back again any time
you want.
Opening and Closing Desktop Icons
Opening Applications
You'll open applications like you would from the desktop—just click or tap
the desired app to open it.
Working with Multiple Apps
When you open an app in tablet mode, it will take up the entire screen. If
you want to open another app, select the Back or Start button near the
lower-left corner.
Closing Apps
There are two ways to close an app in tablet mode. The first option is to
use the X in the upper-right corner, which is the same way you'd close an
app on the desktop.
Using Keyboard Shortcuts
1 Common Shortcuts
Here is a selection of some of the
most common keyboard shortcuts
for Windows 10.
2 Am I Required to Use Tablet
Mode?
If you don't like tablet mode, you
don't have to use it. To return to
desktop mode, open the Action
centre, then choose Tablet mode
to deselect it.
Creating Desktop Shortcuts
What are Shortcuts?
Shortcuts are icons that represent
files, folders, or programs. They are
really only a link to the real file or
program.
Advantages of Desktop
Shortcuts
Windows starts faster when desktop
icons are hidden. Hiding your icons
gives you a bit more privacy in a
public environment.
Customizing Desktop Appearance
1 Customizing Wallpaper
You can customize the wallpaper to personalize your desktop and make it
visually appealing.
2 Changing Icon Sizes
Adjusting the size of icons can help in better organizing and viewing the desktop content.
3 Setting Theme Colors
Choosing theme colors can enhance the overall look and feel of the desktop.
Switching Between Desktop and
Tablet Mode
Desktop Mode
If you don't like tablet mode, you
don't have to use it. To return to
desktop mode, open the Action
centre, then choose Tablet mode to
deselect it.
Tablet Mode
Tablet mode optimizes the user
interface for touch input and is ideal
for devices without a keyboard or
mouse.
Using the Snap Feature
1 How to Use Snap Feature
To use the Snap feature, drag the top
of an app all the way to the right or
left side of the screen. The app will
snap into place.
2 Benefits of Snap Feature
You can use more than one app at
the same time, which enhances
multitasking and productivity.
