The Windows 10 system menus are nearly the same as in Windows 8. I am
not saying identical, but I have found nothing significantly changed.
Right click on the MS Icon brings up all of the system function that you
(I) ever use.

When you install Windows 10, it is set up to boot to the desktop, so
when you boot you are on the desktop.

Never is a long time. As in Windows 8.1 you will see the Tiles when you
right click the MSIcon. However it is a blend between the Start Menu
from Windows XP/7 and the Start Menu from Windows 8.1.

While I don't like the fact that the icons now go up and down not side
ways like Windows 8.1 I definitely like the icons over the collapsing
menus of Windows XP/7.

I have more problems on my Tablet, but they can be tolerated and learned.


When I mentioned garbage I was talking about the Icons for the various
things you use to find on the desktop of new Windows XP/7 computers that
were the first things that you remove back then.
