• 
  
• ·        Installation of Application to wherever one desire.

Microsoft also made the licensing of Windows 10 easier since all users can use their existing Windows 7 or Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 activation key on it. So, it will not require you to install an older version of Windows on your PC first to do the free upgrade.

The Start Menu has also gotten it as the number of tiles has be increase from 512 to a whole 2048. Who is going to have that much tiles on the start. Now the Tile Column can now be stretch to 4 instead of its previous 3.  Even the Context menu has been improved a little.

Now, Microsoft has add the Find my Device feature to this Windows 10 upgrade which will allow you to track your Laptop, Tablet or Phone if lost or stolen as the feature when activated sends the device current Location  to the Microsoft Server as it keeps track of the device timely.

When Windows 10 was released, it never allowed the Title Bar Colour change as one change the Start Menu and Task bar colour, it also now affects the colour on the Title bar. This can be done in Settings > Personalization > Colour. You can now turn the button on for the right settings.
