Description
With Windows 8, Microsoft completely reimagined the graphical user interface for its operating system, which now runs on both desktop PCs and tablets, but the overhaul was once not without hitches and its dueling UIs (one designed for touch, the other for keyboards and mice) created significant confusion for users. Windows 10 (a free update to users of Windows 8 or Windows 7) fixes plenty of the problems introduced by the revolution in Windows 8 and offers a number of new features, such as the new Spartan internet browser, Cortana voice-activated “personal assistant,” new universal apps (that run on tablet, phone, and computer), and more. But to in reality get the most out of the new operating system, you’re going to need a guide.
Thankfully, Windows 10: The Missing Manual will likely be there to lend a hand. Like its predecessors, this book from the founder of Yahoo Tech, previous New York Times columnist, bestselling writer, and Missing Manuals author David Pogue illuminates its subject with technical insight, a number of wit, and hardnosed objectivity for beginners, veteran standalone PC users, new tablet owners, and people who know their way around a network.
