The 5 most interesting functions of Windows 10 Anniversary

Microsoft seems to have done a phenomenal job with Windows 10 and the anniversary update, not only improving each of the sections but also adding new possibilities, such as Windows Ink or the synchronization of notifications between the phone and the PC operating system..

Here are 5 of the features that we liked the most about Windows 10 Anniversary Update.

1 - Windows Ink

Although the operating system already had support for styluses, the arrival of Windows Ink is a step forward to take advantage of the full potential of these devices.

The new experience that Ink brings to the Windows 10 workspace is its central axis to access the new applications, Sticky Notes, Sketchpad, and Screen Sketch with which we can write sticky notes, draw on the screen in any application or make sketches quality

2 - Extensions in Microsoft Edge

The successor of Internet Explorer presents for the first time the addition of extensions, from the beginning of this new function we will have some widely used in other browsers, Adblock, LastPass or Evernote Web Clipper, with the hope that they will come even more in the near future.

3 - Periodic scans in Windows Defender

The default Antivirus of the Microsoft operating system is Windows Defender, which now has a new function that many missed, the possibility of making periodic scans for malicious files.

This scan is performed when the computer is idle and Microsoft assures that it has no impact on autonomy or general performance, nor does it cause conflicts with other Antivirus so it can be alternated with other more advanced proposals in the field.

4 - Synchronized notifications between PC and phone

Now notifications in Windows 10 can also reach your mobile phone, even if the phone is Android thanks to Cortana. Starting with the anniversary update, the phone alerts will be synced to the PC. With this function it is even possible to answer the SMS that arrive on your phone from Windows 10.

5 - New Start Menu

The new Windows 10 start menu now combines the most used applications with the complete list of installed applications with a scroll down. In this way we save a click to see all the applications that we have in the system and also add the configuration buttons and shutdown / restart / hibernation on the left side (among other functions). The new start menu is now more useful than ever.
