Win8 input method

In Win8 system is defaulted to the global input method, which makes many people feel uncomfortable. The so-called global input method is that an input method is applicable to all applications, including newly opened applications will first use the same input method by default. For example, if we use Chinese input method in Word, then we still open the browser and still default to Chinese input method.

This may not be in line with our previous habits, because we have not opened an application that is in English in the input method state before, and then adjust to Chinese as needed. In fact, this setting is very well modified. Let's talk about the method below.

Swipe the mouse to the lower right corner of the screen, bring up the Charm bar and select Settings, click on the Control Panel and find the Replace Input Method option under "Clock, Language & Region".

Windows Defender

In addition to the system's own input method in Win8, we also know that the system comes with anti-virus software Windows Defender, here we will introduce how to use it.

Windows Defender

If you want to use Windows Defender directly, we need to turn off or uninstall the existing third-party anti-virus software. At this point we will see the safety center icon in the operation center icon in the lower right corner, we click directly into it.
