Window 8 Tils
A couple of days ago I downloaded Windows 8 Pro and installed it on a
test computer. Works OK. Based on what I have been able to read I should been able to rename and change thee color on the tiles. All the documentation I have seen says to right click on a tile to do the changes. If I right click on a tile NOTHING happens. Can these items be changed? |

But changing the tile's color is not one of them. -- Ken Blake |
