Gustav, I heartily agree. And with a pair of monitors, doubly so. Further, by dragging the Desktop tile to the first (opening) group of tiles, I can jump right into any of the programs on the Desktop. Incidentally, the utility I mentioned (ClassicShell) is also very useful in a Win7 environment, particularly due to its serious enhancement of Control Panel. I would encourage Win7 users to install it as well as Win 8.1 users. Arthur On Wed, Feb 26, 2014 at 11:16 AM, Gustav Brock <gustav at cactus.dk> wrote: > Hi John > > I don't know.
