Introduction

We know Windows 8 is still missing the Start button and not sure if Microsoft has any plans to put it back. I don't think so. You can download Windows 8 from your MSDN or TechNet account now. Windows 8 will be available to the public on Oct 26.

Windows 8 keyboard shortcuts and hotkeys are your best friend on Windows 8.

There are three keys you need to focus on when searching for files, apps, and settings on Windows 8.

Find Files

To find files, hit WIN+F and type a file name you are looking for.

Find Apps

To find apps, hit WIN+Q. Apps will search all the applications installed on Windows 8. Let's not confuse apps with Windows Store apps.

Find Settings

To find settings, hit WIN+W and start typing the settings you are looking for.
