Enhancing your Windows Vista User Experience
I noticed that when you buy a new laptop, some of them, the desktop icons are too large and not proportional to its taskbar and startmenu. To change, press CTRL key and scroll your mouse down and up. Choose the size that is proportional and comfortable with you.
When I bought my laptop loaded with Windows Vista, the first thing that I have noticed is the RUN command in startmenu is missing. To put it back, Right-click in the taskbar -> Choose Properties -> Start menu tabs -> Customize -> scroll-down and check Run window.
Here’s a guide for changing the function of the Start menu power button. I always mistaken this one for shutdown, It goes to sleep rather than shutdown. If you enabled the Run command in start menu click it, if not just press WindowsKey+R. Type “cmd” and press enter. type “powercfg.cpl,1″ without spaces. Scroll-down and find these options ‘Startmenu power button’.
Turn-on Quick search, this is very useful when searching inside a folder.
1. Open the Windows Explorer.
2. click Organize menu ->
3. Folder and Search options -> View tab and scroll-down to the bottom.
4. Select ‘Automatically type into the Search Box’ option
When you are working with your computer, suddenly your desktop icons disappear. Maybe accidentally you hide all your icons. To make them re-appear, Right-click to desktop -> View -> Show desktop icons.
Slow file operations, when released, Windows Vista performed file operations such as copying and deletion runs more slowly than other operating systems. Other problems, there are many bugs in windows vista since it came out but it is few than Windows XP. To fix these problems, after you bought your laptop/PC loaded with Windows vista, Update your windows.
