Acquiring said update is easy.
I always mean to, but excitement gets the better of me.
Windows Sandbox
Finally, Microsoft has baked this awesome security feature right into Windows 10.
(Nothing personal, Windows 10 Home users.
Dont worry, though.
For those stymied by Microsofts strategy, theres always the third-party appSandboxie.
Its free, too!
Otherwise,getting started with Windows Sandboxtakes a little legwork, but its well worth the time spent.
Microsoft has packed a new light theme into the May update for Windows 10.
Accessing it is easythough you might not want to go with the default theme.
select Windows (light) to immediately switch over to the new look (and wallpaper).
The choose your color option lets you make set light or dark as a systemwide choice.
If you want to get specific, select custom.
Youll now be able to choose the style you want for Windows 10’s system UIandapps.
Mix and match as you see fit.
Pausing future Windows updates
This ones quirky, but hear me out.
Look for the option right on the Windows Update screen.
You cant miss it.
Click that, and youll delay your updates for a week.
Click it again, and it’s possible for you to add on another week.
Copying to the Cloud Clipboard
I know, I know.
Nothing is more sexy than the Windows 10 clipboard.
But, actually, somethingismore sexy than the default, invisible clipboard you never really think about.
(How many of us do anything more thanCTRL + Vafter weveCTRL + Cd, anyway?)
Microsoft has updated the UI of Windows 10’s Cloud Clipboard in the big May update.
Im willing to bet you didnt even know Windows 10hada cloud-based clipboard to begin with.
(Strangely, its powered off by default.)
To change that, pull up your prefs app, then navigate to System and Clipboard.
Turn on the Clipboard history as well as the Sync across devices option.
The sync feature is self-explanatory, and it should also work with the associated SwiftKey app onAndroid.
(No word yet on whether this feature will ever make it to iOS.)
I shall demonstrate its power: A.
The Windows 10 May update now allows users to customize their mouse pointerwild, I know.
Pull up parameters, and then hit Ease of Access.
Want a gigantic neon green mouse pointer?
