Personalization

Compared with Win7, Win8's customization is no longer limited to the desktop, but also needs to consider a comprehensive start interface. On the desktop side, Win8 is basically the same as Win7. I believe Win7 users will not feel strange, but for users who upgrade directly from XP to Win8, they may need some understanding.

First of all, there are three ways to call up the desktop personalization in Win8, one is to open in the control panel, and the other is to right-click the desktop to select "Personalization" to open these operations with Win7 is completely different. In addition, there is another way that is unique to Win8. Move your mouse to the top right or bottom right corner of the desktop to call out the Charm bar, then select the personalization option in the “Settings" option.

Win8's desktop personalization settings are the same as Win7, you can directly use the system's own theme, but also for wallpaper, color, sound and screensavers. Set up separately and support saving custom themes for use at any time.

After setting up the personalized project of the desktop, the following will enter the focus of Win8 personalization, which is also the starting interface of the new concept. After entering the start interface, also move the mouse to call out the Charm column, and select the bottom of the settings in the settings to change the computer settings & rdquo; option, the first one is to see the personalized settings.

The personalization of the Win8 start 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.

Account settings sync


Account settings sync

In Win8, users can log in using a local account, you can also use the Microsoft account log in. However, in a networked environment, we recommend using a Microsoft account to log in to the system, because there are many computer settings that can be synchronized to the cloud through the account. Even if the user uses another Win8 computer, they can synchronize to their favorite settings by logging in to the account.
Login to Win8 via Microsoft account

Of course, the prerequisite for synchronization is that you need a Microsoft account. If you have used Hotmail, MSN or Xbox Live before, then Description already has a Microsoft account; if not, register one.

In fact, during the process of installing Win8, 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.
