Several features of the Windows 7 system experience

Win7 draws on the lessons of Vista, and it pays great attention to this. In Win7, we found that there are fewer programs running automatically, and many are set to manual, so Win7's boot speed is greatly improved. Not only in terms of boot speed, Win7 does a lot of work in optimizing many aspects.

1. Accelerate Disk Defragmentation

Windows
The Disk Defragmentation Tool in 7 provides more controllable options than Windows
Vista. Its command line version also offers some interesting new features. The following is a description of the parameters:

2, let IE load faster

Some IE plugins use more time to start, no doubt this will slow down the performance of the entire browser. In IE8 in Windows 7, users can know which browser plugins (extensions) are running the slowest.

Usage: Click on Tools >Manage Add-ons. The loading time list on the right shows the operation of the plugin. If you want to make your IE faster, you know how to deal with these related plugins. O(∩_∩)O

3. Fix the taskbar

Windows 7 enhances security. Sex, therefore, the gadgets for the desktop sidebar will not be enabled when UAC is turned off. If you disable UAC and plan to use gadgets normally, follow the instructions below.

Run the registration editor and find the following location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionSidebarSettings, create a new DWORD value, the key name is AllowElevatedProcess, the value is set to 1, so that the gadgets can start normally.

4, Alt+Tab Enhanced Usage

Suppose you have opened five resource managers and run many other programs. In order to find what you need in so many programs, Switching windows with traditional Alt+Tab is really time consuming.

What should I do? Hold down the Ctrl key and click on the Explorer icon. Windows 7 will only switch between these Explorer windows, which makes the window positioning faster. . This tip is for any application that supports multiple instances at the same time.

5, disable smart window arrangement

Another new feature of Windows 7 is to intelligently arrange windows, when you drag a window to the top of the screen, it will automatically maximize. This feature is love and hate, we like Windows 7, but do not want to use some of its features, what should I do? Or resort to the registry, run REGEDIT, jump to: HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktop, set the WindowArrangementActive key value is 0 , restart.

6, better system recovery

In Windows Vista, there are few setting options for system restore. This has finally been improved in Windows 7, with several useful options to choose from. Click the Start button, right click on my Computer
, select Properties, System Protection, Settings, here, you can set the maximum size of the system restore according to your needs. The larger the size, the more restore points, the more Small can free up more disk space. In addition to this, you can also set the default protection range for System Restore.

7, Magnifier

8. Run the program in different identities

Hold down the Shift key and right click on any program shortcut to display an option to run the program as a different user, such as using a child at home. When you limit your account, you can temporarily use higher privileges.

9, set the time zone with the command line

Windows7 has a new command to set the time zone: tzutil.exe. This means that the time zone can be set for the PC via a script, and IT administrators will definitely like it. For example, to set a PC to Greenwich Mean Time, use the following command:

tzutil /s "gmt standard time", and several parameters are optional, for example, tzutil /g , showing the current time zone, tzutil /l lists all time zones.

10, adjust the computer volume

In the default state of Windows 7, when a voice call (PC-based) is played or called in, it will automatically lower the volume of the PC speaker. If you don't want to use this feature, you can turn it off at any time. Right click on the speaker icon on the taskbar and select Sounds >Communications to set it according to your needs.

Overall, Win7 is really a lot of work in optimization. Here, we need to thank those engineers who have worked hard for the advent of Win7. Let us look forward to the release of the Win7 RC version, and look forward to something newer and better.
