Win8 system skills: 4 small tools hidden in the Win8 operating system

The computer store news Win8 serial experience series has met with you again, this time we introduce the hidden gadgets in the Win 8 operating system, let you spy on Win 8 unknown side. In the known Win8 development system, there are many completely different designs, such as the Metro UI like WP7, the built-in PDF reader that can read PDF, the WebCam running on the browser, and the new built-in desktop. Screen and so on. However, since the current version of Win8 is still relatively primitive, the functions of each module are not powerful enough, so most of these functions are scattered in the Win8 system directory as files. However, if you don't look at it, it will always make people feel uncomfortable. Let's experience the mysterious tools together with the author. First, the screen split screen Split screen software we all know, can help us quickly achieve multi-desktop operations like Android, especially in the busy White Collar circle. In Win8 Pre-M3 7955, I found that a small file named "Desktops.exe" was hidden under the C:\\Sysint folder. After the trial, I found out that this is actually a split-screen gadget built into Microsoft. . After double-clicking the file, a license agreement will pop up first. After confirming, the shortcut key setting box will be opened. Here we can set the virtual desktop switch key and whether to boot and other options. From the interface point of view, the developer of this gadget is Sysinternals.com, don't think that this is a small company running the river, its predecessor is the famous Winternals, but was acquired by Microsoft after 2006. Obviously from this point of view, Win8's future integrated screen split screen is still very likely. The function of the software is very simple, there is almost no special design, we can switch to any desktop at any time with the help of shortcut keys, and each desktop has a certain personalized saving function, such as personalized wallpaper, exclusive task bar, etc. . However, the desktop icon is still shared, which is a gap compared to other professional tools. In addition to the shortcut keys, we can also switch the desktop by clicking the software icon in the system tray. The difference is that this method will pop up a preview pane and complete the switch by clicking on the thumbnail with the mouse.

Second, PDF reader Like the split screen software, the PDF reader is also a small file located under C:\\Program Files\\Mcrosoft\\Windows.glcnd\\, named “ldcnd.exe”. However, the interface after double-clicking may be disappointing, because there is not even an icon or button in addition to the top "PDF". To bring up the full interface, you need to combine the keys Ctrl+Shift+F9 and then open a PDF file with Ctrl+O. At this point you will find that the reader has started to make some small changes. The first is the position bar that pops up on the far right. It can list the page number of the entire document here, and it can also indicate the current location through a slider. Followed by the quick return button in the upper left corner, its role is more simple, is to bring the user directly back to the last position. In addition, this built-in PDF reader hides some small commands. For example, you can use Ctrl+1/2/0 to switch between the three display scales, the actual display size/suitable width/fit height, the rotation display of the document by Ctrl+R, and the quick print by Ctrl+P. Wait. In short, the only one that does not match the leaked map is that I have not found the option to display multiple pages side by side.
