Getting to know the Start screen
The Windows 8 Start screen provides you a new and easy way to access
your favorite things, such as apps, websites and contacts.
By pointing the mouse pointer to the lower-right (or upper-right) corner of
your screen, you will find a list of charms with different demands, including
basic tasks such as turning off the power and advanced PC settings.
You can also find the settings and features that you're familiar with by
clicking the Desktop tile from the Start screen.
For detailed information on what is new and how to operate Windows 8,
please refer to the Windows Help and Support.
