Charms

Swipe in from the right edge of the screen to see the charms.

Charms help you do the things you do most often, like search, share, and change settings. The charms are always available on the right side of your screen (from Start or any app).

Find out more in the Charms section of this guide.

App commands

Swipe up from the bottom or down from the top edge of the screen to see commands. Or, right click your mouse or trackpad to see commands.

Switch apps

And finally, to switch between open apps, swipe in from the left edge of the screen. Learn more about this in the All about apps section of this guide.

The familiar desktop

The Windows desktop that you're used to—with its taskbar, folders, and icons—is still here, with a new taskbar and streamlined file management.
