This post is part of an ongoing collection of posts that I plan to make regarding my recent foray into Windows 7. In this particular post I will be pointing to some interesting and cool tips that I have come across that I thought might be interesting to other people… For more tips like these you might want to head over to SevenForums. Have a look and see if the tips are useful for you.
- Clear desktop by shaking the title bar
- Snap window to a side
- Show service running under svchost
- Maximize windows by dragging to top of screen
- Windows XP Mode – Install and Setup
- Quick Launch – Enable or Disable
Right away I had to enable the Quick Launch feature as well as adding the Gadgets feature to support my Password Maker Gadget. I also especially like the tips for clearing the desktop by shaking the title bar, and maximizing the window by dragging it to the top of the screen.
What about you? Have you run across any cool tips for Windows 7?
