Software
Taskbar (Desktop Mode)
You can start programs from the taskbar at the bottom of the screen and
switch between programs already running. In Windows® 8 you can place any
program onto the taskbar, so that you can always open it with a single click.
You can also rearrange the icons on the taskbar by simply clicking on them
and dragging them to the desired position. Move the mouse pointer over the
icons and thumbnails of each file or each open window and that program will
be displayed. If you move the mouse pointer over the thumbnail, a full screen
preview of the window in question appears. When you move the mouse
pointer away from the thumbnail again, the full screen preview closes.

Jump Lists

Jump lists offer a practical way of calling up recently opened files. To display
the recently used files, simply right-click on the application icon in the
taskbar. Thus if you right-click on the Word icon, the recently used Word
documents are displayed. You can also easily place other files you wish to
have easily to hand in the jump list so that they are always displayed. This
allows you to access documents that you use frequently in just a few mouse
clicks.
The jump lists for certain programs such as Windows® 8 Media Player can be
populated in advance with frequently used commands. Thus, for example,
you will see options to play all music or to reopen the last playlist in the jump
list for Windows® 8 Media Player.
The frequently visited and last visited websites are displayed in the jump list
for Internet Explorer. This therefore allows you to quickly access commands
for certain programs that could previously only be called up from the
program itself, such as the command to compose a new email message.

Improved Desktop

Windows® 8 simplifies working with windows on the desktop. You therefore
have more intuitive options for opening and closing, changing sizes and
rearranging.
Windows® 8 makes completing everyday tasks even simpler. The locking
function (snaps) makes it easier to compare two open windows, for example.
You do not need to manually adjust the size of the opened windows to make
a comparison. Simply drag the window to one of the screen margins using
the mouse and it will fill half of the screen.
