At present, the personalization of Windows has always been an aspect that users are paying more attention to. Windows 8 is relatively better in this regard. Windows 8 has a new Modern UI design, so Windows 8's personalization will be divided into two aspects: traditional desktop and Modern interface:
1. First, let's look at the personalized settings under the traditional interface.
The operation method is the same as that of Windows 7. You can right-click on the desktop and select “Personalize” in the menu to enter the personalized settings interface. In addition, you can also move your mouse to the Charm column in the upper right or lower right corner of the desktop, and then select the personalization option in the “Settings” This is a unique step in Windows 8.
2. Windows 8 traditional desktop personalization settings, like Windows 7, you can directly use the system's own theme, but also can set the wallpaper, color, sound and screen saver separately, and support the custom theme Save it for use at any time. These settings are very intuitive on the interface, so you can click on them to set them up.
Set up the personalized project of the desktop, the following will enter the focus of Windows 8 personalization, is also a new concept of the Modern interface. After entering the Modern interface, you can also move the mouse out of the Charm column, and select the bottom of the settings in the settings, "Change the computer settings" option, the first one is to see the personalized settings.
3. The personalized interface of the Modern interface is divided into three parts, namely the lock screen, the start screen and the user avatar. The lock screen settings can use the system's own wallpaper, or you can add your favorite wallpaper as a lock screen interface. In addition, the lock screen interface also supports the display of application messages, such as receiving new mail, even in the lock screen interface we can see notification reminders.
4. The start screen can't add custom background at present, but the system provides users with 20 background patterns and 25 color matching schemes, which is believed to fully meet the user's requirements. As for the user avatar, there is not much to introduce here, just add the selected image to it. In Windows 8, users can completely customize from the lock screen to the Modern interface to the desktop, making their PCs different from the inside out.
5. Set up account personalized synchronization
In Windows 8, users can log in to the system using a local account, or log in using a Microsoft account. However, in a networked environment, we recommend using a Microsoft account to log in to the system, because there are a lot of computer settings that can be synced to the cloud through the account, even if the user uses other Windows 8 computers, as long as the account is logged in, they can be synchronized into their own common settings.
This is especially true in terms of personalization. If you use the Microsoft account to log in to the system and set up your own personalization options, when you log in with another computer, the set interface will also be synchronized. Even if the current computer has the original file without desktop wallpaper, you can continue to use the image saved to the cloud as a wallpaper.
In fact, during the process of installing Windows 8, the system will prompt to log in or register a Microsoft account, but it does not matter if you missed it. You can register one on the Outlook.com website. After signing up, in addition to having a Microsoft account, you will also be able to use Microsoft services such as Outlook Mail, SkyDrive Cloud Storage, MSN and Onenote.
6. After the registration is completed, you can log in to the Windows 8 system through the Microsoft account. Now let's take a look at how to set up the synchronization. Also enter the "Change PC Settings" in the Modern interface, select the "Sync your settings" section, here we will see a lot of entries, you can choose the switch.
Because the first step to open Windows 8 is to lock the screen, the second step is to start the screen, so personalized settings and versatile Windows 8 applications can impact the user's vision in the first time, while matching The Windows 8 application mentioned in the 05 issue can create a personal and personalized interface.
