Hello friends, today's tutorial to see how to use the Metro or Modern UI interface as Microsoft calls it the newest in Windows 8. This episode is dedicated to tutorials Windows 4 8 series will continue in other tutorials in the series will address in more detail using Windows 8.
Many users are wondering what Microsoft wants to do with Windows 8. The answer is simple. Desktop and Metro interface unifying into a single operating system, Microsoft engineers will to give users the same experience in use, whether the latter using desktop, laptop, tablet or phone.
If we think about what we have on the market now, we will find a multitude of operating systems that push the user to learn how to use each operating system depending on the device purchased. Currently we have iOS for tablets and mobiles, Mac OS for desktop platforms, Ubuntu for desktop platforms, Android for tablets and smartphones and finally Windows for desktop, tablet or smartphone. Notice how for the enumeration "desktop, tablet, smartphone" remained the same operating system (Windows) regardless of the device?
No manufacturer currently does not offer the same operating system with the same operating mode for all devices. Well, use Windows 8 will be the same regardless of the device mainly because Metro interface. We will not be forced to learn how to use the operating system for each new device purchased. Windows 8 is able to run on powerful desktop PCs, the tablet ARM processors on notebooks or netbooks on Ultrabooks and smartphones, PCs Touch All-In-One. The most important is that the use will be the same regardless of the chosen device.
I personally find extremely simple Metro interface, with a nice design, intuitive and can tell you that 70% of daily PC use occurs Metro interface. Windows 8 8000 went on the road with applications available in Store, applications for most fields.
In today's tutorial we address situations such as:
- what are the gestures for using the Metro interface when using a Touch Screen Display
- closing or opening Metro pliers
- switching between Metro applications running in the backround
- enable or disable animation for some Metro (Live Tiles) icons
- enlarging or moving a Metro icon (Tiles)
- removing or adding an icon in the Metro interface
- uninstalling a Metro application
- color change for Metro theme
- changing the Metro theme
- change the photo from the Lock Screen
- adding or changing the photo for the user account (Account Picture)
- how to get to the settings of a Metro application
- how we bring the Charm Bar to the forefront
- how to search for already installed applications or non-installed applications existing in the Store
- how to use the search function to quickly find files or operating system options
- how to make updates for Metro applications already installed
- how to rename groups with icons in the Metro interface and how we can create new groups
Towards the end I must say that Windows is a 8 prepared for any device that has a touch screen and touch gestures can be used to facilitate the use of the operating system. Also for many netbooks, ultrabooks and notebooks, the user can use the same gestures on the touch pad available on them.

hello, I also have a problem in windows 8, after installing the operating system and during it nothing is connected to the pc except the mouse keyboard and monitor …… .when i enter my computer… .the letters on the games are not in order , ex: the partition with windows is called C but the 2nd partition is not called D but E… and next F and so on… .so I skip D… and if I add a stick, that stick has the partition called D… what is it happens that I don't give a damn at all… .I hope you can help me:) ms, bye bye!
Same thing happened to me. The reason is that you have installed win8 the stick. It has been recognized as a windows partition D and therefore allocated to your partition (which in the past was called D) point E. The solution is the following. Or install from DVD boot or install from the stick after the first restart remove the stick from your computer. Success.
1.Felicitari Adrian for how you pointed out all that is new, useful, unusual, elegant, professional in metro interface + win8 everything.
2.Cred like to move to a new stage in which also means Op System!
gherghisan nelu, thanks, so this would be a bug for windows 8… ..on 7 I don't suffer :), ms once again, bye
I want to be more specific. When installing Windows 8 the stick to avoid partition D thing should be removed immediately bootable stick after the onset of the first restart and reopen before the comp. I apologize for the preciousness but I did not want to miss a new installation of Windows because my expression elusive.
Very good tutorial, we expect, and the rest
Since yesterday I have a problem with the icons (not tiles, icons that appear when you right click on a tile) of the Modern UI. http://i.imgur.com/TBFZB.png

Thank you
I understood the first time nelu not dc did not know I was thinking about it .. :)) ms once again for reply, bye

You rearm for another 90 days. Is the tutorial on this site about rearm. E simpu. Unlike Windows Windows 7 8 go rearm made only once. So 90 90 + = 180 days.

This is because you chose to install Romanian (Romania) for Time and currency format and Keyboard or input method. (the first window that greets you when you install windows….
Clear, concise, comprehensible! Thank you, Adrian!
So in conclusion install or purchase Windows 8 worth?'d Like some opinions. Thank you.
dc I occurs to me or app store? http://imgur.com/kzRSP
I give to me one answer, please in leg. the comment above?
Because you set a lower resolution. The higher the resolution the more small DOB-Store will be more compact so that it can display as many items on your display.
If you have a higher resolution and therefore more space, the site may extend Store and display details.
MetroUI applications adapt themselves… the interface will not be the same but different from one resolution to another.
My desktop resolution is 1280 x 800 tutorial
adrian please tell me me how to resolve this error: CAN not run windows start menu Because the system has detected a problem with Metro UI interface.te please help me.
Well you did not think you could do from what has been shown so far in the 4 episodes? You come to a conclusion?
We do not draw conclusions and do not tell you "buy windows 8" or "do not buy windows 8"
We do not because we do not want but you're the only one who knows what you need, what you expect, what you like and what not.
We only present and highlights the things that probably will not see them, you do not understand, do not use or do not know to use them. Furthermore, acknowledging the use and presentation made it is your duty to ask if you do not mind offering if you need it or not.
More details please: what video card you have, what monitor and what resolution, what processor and which version of Windows you have installed 8 exactly where it was downloaded the windows 8 that you installed?
I have a laptop video card is nvidia geforce GT540m 2 gb, the resolution is 1366 × 768, the processor is intel core i5-2430m, 2.4GHz with hardware virtualization, 8 gb memory, the windows 8 version is consumer preview-32 bit and I tried other versions but I took the 32-bit one off http://www.redmondpie.com/download-windows-8-consumer-preview-iso-64-bit-32-bit-now/ and others do not know because I deleted the pictures looked web-ul.Am siam iso windows installed without any problema.Uite 8 how it happened I boot my system and instead enter the metro UI interface I woke up in the desktop interface with that error and whenever eroare.Poate Press Start appears that you can not force you help me if you can resolve naturally but please tell me trust me I try everything but nothing.
The Metro interface is useful?
If you spend enough time reading and reading all the text above the video tutorial, you will understand what Microsoft wants to do with the Metro interface. I explained quite clearly…
I have a problem with win 8 I install win as in the previous tutorials I installed the video card driver (geforce gt 9600 gt) the resolution was automatically adjusted after about 4 hours the resolution was automatically changed to 640 × 480 and I can't change it anymore instead of the "screen resolution" he writes to me (Your resolution is lower than 1024 x 768.Some items might not fit and apps might not open.) I reistal the driver from the video board I reistal win and I still managed to torment myself for a week I would be very grateful if you would answer me ms !!! ??
Do a reinstall of Windows, then disable the automatic installation of drivers and give a restart PC. When you come back from restart install video card driver that you own.
To find out how to disable the automatic installation of drivers (windows 7 and windows 8 usually install the drivers they find automatically through Windows Update. Disabling Windows Update is not a correct solution so that this (automatic driver installation) does not happen. more) write up in the SEARCH box: "How to disable the automatic installation of drivers in Windows Vista and 7" press the enter key and you will find the tutorial. What was shown there is also valid for Windows 8
I did exactly you told me and so do I install draivarul the site for the motherboard nvidia geforce gt 9600 nustiu what to think now after what you know is occurring draivar Plaka for this or why I do it problem?
Alex on Windows 7 if you did not clear the windows problems ii 8 not the driver for your video card compatible with this new operating system emerged.

… .I have a problem and please help with thanks in advance… I upgraded from W7 to W8 Pro and after about two days by accident I deleted all the updates made, so that, among other things, I no longer have "Store" and settings of computer, the user's picture does not let me put it and there will be others that I will find out… there is any possibility to upgrade again, without money of course, mentioning that I have a serial key.
I have some questions that in some reviews on this site I realized that it was good, others not too well, so the first question!
1. It's good to have bit operating system and 32 64 bits diferiete drives installed?
2. It is better to have two operating systems on one PC? If yes then why? If not .. then why not?
3. Video card settings, I expected to find more tutorials on setting video cards.
It would be more questions, but right now I'm sticking to that!
Greeting. I installed win 8 PRO goes without problem but when he tried to change my user image can not. If you want to give will not let me browse button appears as shown me a folder that is hidden. Why can not I change the picture? Is it because I'm logged in with a local user and not an e-mal?
Hello
How do I put the IE icon that 10 that are in metro start to put it on the desktop
Or how to run IE 10 that nine of the metro interface to run directly on the desktop?
I have another question you can't do a tutorial about IE 10… I noticed that many people discuss the new browser
I only have words of thanks for all the video tutorials posted. Windows 8 Enterprise works perfectly for me. I downloaded it in Spanish and set it as the standard Romanian language. I did not encounter any problems. Thousands of thanks again…
Hi . I installed the W7 interface on W8, the phase is that I can't customize the interface at all, I noticed in the tutorial that your interface has different applications, at my interface there are only a few simple applications and I don't see a "store" so I can install applications . Could it be that I installed the interface incorrectly or is it the problem with my laptop? There is something else I should have done, I took steps, I updated and restarted the laptop but it is in vain. Can you help me ?
Thank you
Howdy. I also have a question for those who use win 8 x64. I installed accuweather in the subway and I have problems with the application. At the first run of the application after installation it works ok but if I close the application and reopen it after a few minutes the window opens appears "updated to…" and closes. Has anyone suffered from this or do I have problems with the operating system. If I start the application with the internet connection closed and I open the internet after starting the application, the information works and is updated. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the application and it still works.
Last but not least congratulations to all tutorials and thank you exist, I learned a lot watching your lulcruri.
Although nobody wants to answer me. AccuWeather does not use one?
