Making Windows 10 Easier to Use<\/span><\/h1>\n

What is the quickest way to access the following items in Windows 10: Apps & Features, Mobility Center, Power Options, Event Viewer, System, Device Manager, Network Connections, Disk Management, and Computer Management?\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Which of the following would you say is the fastest way to get to any (or all) of the above?<\/span><\/p>\n

A. Settings<\/span>
\nB. Control Panel
\n<\/span>C. Start Menu
\n<\/span>D. Hidden Start Menu<\/span>
\nE. None off these<\/span><\/p>\n

Who said D? You’re right!\u00a0<\/span>The hidden start menu,\u00a0 also known as the right-click Start menu or the Power users’ menu is the fastest way to access Device Manager, Power options, Event Viewer, Disk Management, etc. You can access this menu by right-clicking the Windows start menu or, if you’re a keyboard shortcut fan like us, you can open this menu by holding down the Windows key and tapping X.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/span><\/p>\n

Bonus! <\/span><\/p>\n

Why does my right-click menu show Command Prompt and Command Prompt (Admin), but yours shows Windows PowerShell? I changed mine because I use Command Prompt a lot more than Windows PowerShell. If you do too, you can change yours from PowerShell to Command Prompt just as easy as flipping a switch.<\/span><\/p>\n

Right-click a blank area of the taskbar, click on “Taskbar settings” and flip the switch under “Replace Command Prompt with Windows PowerShell in the menu when I right-click the start button or press Windows Key+X”<\/span><\/p>\n

See?<\/span><\/p>\n
