Win8 how to view Metro application size

  

For Win8, Surface users, downloading applications from the Windows Store is very convenient. However, since the Win8 tablet interface does not support right-click viewing of file sizes, we are not aware of the amount of hard disk space occupied by installed applications, which creates some minor barriers to management applications. So, where should we go to see the application size? Below, I will introduce a simple method.










































Available Storage

Next, in “General”, find “Available Storage", which shows the current free space on your computer. Click “View app size" to see the amount of hard drive space occupied by the installed app.

In these applications, you can definitely find some "volume" applications that are huge but not commonly used. You can choose to uninstall the app to free up system space. This little feature is more practical for Surface users.

At present, there are more than 30,000 applications in the Windows Store, which greatly improves the user's choice. Therefore, it is better to eliminate those applications that are useless. The Win8 app store has a better choice. !

Let "My Computer" appear in the start interface

By "My Computer", finding and managing files is a habit of many old users, but due to the start interface of Win8 There is no XP in my computer & rdquo;, so when accessing a certain file, we can only enter the "computer" through the traditional desktop file manager, in order to see the contents of each drive letter. In fact, we can let “my computer” appear on the Metro interface.
Pin to Start Screen

In Win8, icons from every traditional desktop can be solidified into the Metro interface. Method 1: From the traditional desktop into the file manager, right click on the "computer" icon and select “fix to the start screen”.
