3.3 Copying and pasting also has new improvements. Let's talk about the more operations that everyone uses - copy/cut/paste. In Windows 8, the file management operation is changed by using the Ribbon interface that is used in Office 2007. It's much simpler and faster, and the user's common copy-and-paste operation has also been improved.
In Windows 8, when the user copies/cuts files/folders to a location, the information and progress box contains the percentage of completion, the file name being copied, the remaining time and the remaining file size, and A dynamic chart shows the user the current and previous copy speeds.

When the target folder contains files with the same file name (duplicate files), the user in the query dialog can choose to overwrite and cancel the operation. Choose which file (target or source) you want to keep, instead of overwriting or canceling it. With the thumbnail mode, it's easier to tell which one needs to be retained.

3.4 Switching program can also do this
ALT+ is commonly used by users in traditional Windows Tab's application switching method is also applicable in Windows 8. The user has a faster operation mode, that is, moving the cursor to the edge of the leftmost screen of the screen, a thumbnail will appear, and the user can Drag the thumbnail out of the edge of the screen (or click on the thumbnail directly) to switch the application that is currently running in the background.

3.5 Different past split screen running function
In Windows 8, there is automatic split screen function, how should this function be described? This function is when the user uses the large-screen display (high resolution), and the screen can be divided into two areas by the split-screen operation to simultaneously display and execute two applications, such as watching the video, and splitting the screen to view the stock information. However, this function seems to require the resolution of the display to reach 1366 × 768 to split the screen.

3.6 Sharing is as simple as this
Sharing anywhere, anytime, sharing in Windows 8 becomes simple. When any application is running, if the user wants to share the current content to the netizen, they can choose to share in the "Start" menu, and then choose which way and which application to share (depending on the application installed by the user).
However, only the screenshot application of Socialite is currently available, and the destination of its sharing is Facebook. Everyone knows that the site is currently inaccessible in China. I believe that there will soon be related applications that are shared with domestic websites.

3.7 Synchronization function makes your Windows settings go to the world
At present, many browsers have introduced synchronization function, which can set user settings, favorites, etc. Stored in the network so that users can easily call it on other computers.
A similar feature is available in Windows 8. Users can use Windows Live ID as a Windows 8 user account (which can be bound to an existing account). After binding, user data (settings, etc.) will be synchronized to the network. So that users can call it on other computers, mobile phones, and tablets.
