微软(Microsoft)称Windows 10是有史以来最好的 Windows。这意味着有史以来最流行的计算机操作系统——Windows 10——必须满足很多很高的期望。尽管Windows 10存在相当多的问题，尤其是在更新方面，但它也提供了一些令人兴奋的功能。从精心设计的开始菜单开始(Start Menu)，到令人愉悦的桌面体验和出色的游戏功能，再到全新的Microsoft Edge，Windows 10是(Windows 10)微软(Microsoft)在过去十年中打造的最佳操作系统。以下是我们最喜欢Windows 10的地方：
1.开始菜单(Start Menu)又回来了，比以往任何时候都好
在Windows 8之前，用户已经习惯了开始菜单(Start Menu)，这在早期的Microsoft操作系统中一直存在。然后，它突然消失了，取而代之的是开始(Start)屏幕。用户开始抱怨它，因此，随着Windows 10的推出，微软(Microsoft)听取了它收到的反馈并开发了一个全新的开始菜单(whole new Start Menu)，它结合了旧开始菜单(Start Menu)和开始(Start)屏幕的优点。新的开始菜单(Start Menu)提供您安装的所有应用程序的列表、最近安装或常用程序的快捷方式，以及一个单独的部分，您可以在其中固定Microsoft Store应用程序的动态磁贴，以及传统桌面程序的快捷方式。微软(Microsoft)成功地捕捉到了这两种体验的精华，并创造了我们见过的最高效的开始菜单。(Start Menu)
2. 新版Microsoft Edge是微软(Microsoft)有史以来最好的浏览器
Microsoft Edge是Windows 10中的默认 Web 浏览器。它取代了老旧的Internet Explorer，并使用了全新的渲染引擎EdgeHTML 。直到最近微软(Microsoft)决定再次改变它。尽管Microsoft Edge的名称继续沿用，但新版本的浏览器使用Chromium作为其渲染引擎。它与Google Chrome或Opera使用的引擎相同，除了速度非常快之外，这还意味着您可以从Chrome Web Store下载和安装扩展程序！保持(Keep)请记住，在发布本文时，新的Microsoft Edge尚未默认安装在Windows 10（2020 年 5 月更新(May 2020 Update)）中。据传今年将通过Windows Update(Windows Update)来到我们所有人面前，但目前，您可以从其下载网页(download webpage)手动更新它。
3. 使用DirectX 12、Game Mode和Xbox Game Bar进行游戏(Xbox Game Bar)
DirectX 12是(DirectX 12)Microsoft开发的最新图形API，仅在Windows 10中可用。它具有一些令人兴奋的功能，例如对 PC 内部硬件组件的低级别访问，尤其是显卡。使用DirectX 12的现代游戏现在能够在多个GPU卡和多个处理器内核之间高效地使用和分配负载。简而言之，Windows 10 让新游戏比以前的Windows操作系统运行得更快、更好。
Windows 10 还内置了游戏模式(Game Mode)，可在游戏过程中阻止系统后台活动，例如Windows更新或来自应用程序的通知，旨在提供更一致的游戏体验(consistent gaming experience)。不仅如此，您还可以获得Xbox Game Bar，它可以让您做各种有用的事情：截取屏幕截图并记录您玩的游戏、在玩游戏时查看 PC 性能的详细信息、与朋友聊天，甚至控制音量或在 Spotify 上播放音乐，(play music on Spotify)而无需Alt-Tab您的游戏。
4. 捕捉你的应用程序窗口，不要破坏它们
我们第一次看到Snap是在Windows 7中。微软(Microsoft)并没有忘记这个小而非常有用的功能，并且在Windows 10中，他们对其进行了很多改进。这是一个很好的例子，说明小事可以意味着很多：只需几个手势，您就可以快速、整齐地组织您在桌面上打开的所有应用程序和窗口。任何尝试过此新功能的人都可以告诉您它可以在多大程度上帮助您提高桌面工作效率。
5. 通过任务视图(Task View)、时间线(Timeline)和虚拟桌面成为生产力大师
Windows 10 是第一个引入虚拟桌面的(virtual desktops)Windows版本，可通过微软(Microsoft)所谓的任务视图(Task View)获得。这是Windows 10中最好的功能之一，允许您在设备上创建和使用多个桌面。此外(Furthermore)，Task View还有一个叫做Timeline的东西。从本质上讲，它是一种工具，可让您在您拥有的任何其他设备上继续您在其中一个Windows 10设备上开始的工作。(Windows 10)例如，您可以开始在Microsoft Word中处理文档(Microsoft Word)在您的主 PC 上，关闭该文件，然后继续在您的笔记本电脑上对其进行编辑。这绝对是一项功能，可以让您更好地组织工作和应用程序，从而提高您的工作效率。
6.Windows沙盒
Windows 10 是微软(Microsoft)制造的第一个操作系统，它捆绑了一种易于安装和任何用户使用的内置虚拟机。它被称为Windows 沙盒(Windows Sandbox)，您可以在Windows 10的(Windows 10)专业版(Pro)和企业(Enterprise)版上使用它。它对于各种事情都(useful for all kinds of things)非常有用，例如测试您不信任的应用程序或访问看起来具有欺骗性的网站。最新版本的Windows Sandbox甚至允许您对其进行一些自定义，并使其自动运行脚本和应用程序(run scripts and apps automatically)。我们很确定这个应用程序将来会变得更好。
7. Windows 10 喜欢 Linux
Windows 10 包含一个名为Windows 子系统 for Linux(Windows Subsystem for Linux)的可选功能，也简称为WSL。您可以将(install)它安装在您的Windows 10 PC 上，然后拥有自己的Linux发行版，如Ubuntu、openSUSE 或Fedora。在Windows 10的最新更新中，微软(Microsoft)进一步改进了与Linux的集成，发布了第二版WSL，带来了更好的性能。此外(Furthermore)，微软(Microsoft)承诺WSL还将获得对图形渲染的支持。这意味着，在未来，我们也应该能够直接从Windows 10运行(Windows 10)Linux图形应用程序，而无需运行任何虚拟机或双启动进入Linux。
8. 越来越多的应用程序是跨平台的
许多适用于Windows 10的应用程序都是跨平台开发的，这意味着它们可以在任何类型的Windows 10设备上运行，无论是 PC、笔记本电脑、平板电脑，甚至是 Xbox One 控制台。
这意味着开发人员无需为每种类型的设备创建不同版本的应用程序，因为他们开发的一个应用程序可以从平板电脑使用的小屏幕无缝扩展到 30 英寸以上的电脑等最大屏幕监视器。对于最终用户来说，这似乎不太有趣，但长话短说，这意味着开发人员的工作量要少得多，而我们的应用程序要多得多。大部分Windows 10用户通常使用许多此类通用应用程序：Word Mobile、Excel Mobile、PowerPoint Mobile、Outlook Mail、Calendar或OneNote应用程序。
9.从行动中心控制一切(Action Center)
任何智能手机用户都知道什么是通知和快速操作以及它们有多大用处。微软(Microsoft)将此功能引入了所有Windows 10设备。您的通知会一起放置在从屏幕右侧弹出的操作中心中。(Action Center)通知(notifications)让您随时了解设备上发生的任何事情，而快速操作(quick actions)可帮助您快速轻松地打开各种功能，如平板电脑模式(Tablet Mode)、Wi-Fi、VPN 等。
10. 有史以来最好的任务管理器
任务管理器(Task Manager)一直是Windows操作系统的重要组成部分，也是微软有史以来最好的工具之一(Microsoft)。在Windows 10中，它更加出色，可以让您执行检查系统性能、监控和终止进程或控制启动应用程序(startup apps)等操作。不仅如此，它还向您显示有关您的设备的非常有用的信息。当您想查看处理器、RAM、磁盘的利用率或检查显卡温度时，它是您的首选。
11.设置(Settings)应用程序一天比一天好
在 Windows 10 中，设置应用程序(the Settings app)是控制和设置计算机的首选位置。尽管旧的控制面板(Control Panel)中还剩下一些东西，但设置(Settings)应用程序稳步接管。设置(Settings)应用程序的主要优点是在使用触摸和使用鼠标和键盘时都易于使用。无论您使用的是什么类型的设备，无论是传统的 PC、笔记本电脑还是平板电脑，都无关紧要。
12.向Windows 10问好！
微软(Microsoft)承诺，在某些时候，我们将不再需要密码或PIN码来登录我们的Windows设备。Windows 10 已经可以借助名为Windows Hello的令人兴奋的新功能来做到这一点。Hello 使用您的面部(uses your face)、虹膜或指纹作为您的生物特征认证方法。唯一的缺点，如果你可以这么说的话，就是你需要专门的硬件来获得Windows Hello的最佳功能，才能在你的计算机或设备上运行。
13. Windows 安全
数字(Digital)安全在我们生活的世界中至关重要，Microsoft深知这一点。您绝对不得不花钱购买防病毒软件来保护您的计算机的日子已经很长了。(Long)Windows 10 包含您可以在操作系统中找到的最佳安全工具包之一。它称为Windows 安全(Windows Security)性，为您提供最新的防病毒保护，实时扫描恶意软件、病毒和其他类型的安全威胁。Windows 安全(Windows Security)性非常好，实际上比某些第三方安全解决方案要好。

13 best things about Windows 10
Microsoft says that Windows 10 is the best Windоws ever. Thаt means that the most popular computer operating system of all times - Windows 10 - has to meet plenty of high expectations. Although it has its fair share оf problеms, еspecially with updates, Windows 10 also offers some exciting feаtures. Startіng with a well designed Start Menu, continuing with a pleasant desktop experience and excellеnt gaming features, and going all the way to a completely new Microsoft Edge, Windows 10 is the best оperating system built by Microsoft in the last decade. Here arе the things we like most about Windows 10:
1. The Start Menu is back, and it is better than ever
Up to Windows 8, users got used to the Start Menu, which was ever-present in earlier Microsoft's operating systems. Then, it suddenly disappeared, being replaced by the Start screen. Users started complaining about it, so, with the launch of Windows 10, Microsoft listened to the feedback it received and developed a whole new Start Menu, which combines the best of the old Start Menu and the Start screen. The new Start Menu offers lists for all the apps you installed, shortcuts to recently installed or frequently used programs, as well as a separate section in which you can pin live tiles for apps from the Microsoft Store, as well as shortcuts for traditional desktop programs. Microsoft managed to capture the best of both experiences and created the most efficient Start Menu we ever saw.
2. The new Microsoft Edge is the best browser Microsoft ever made
Microsoft Edge is the default web browser in Windows 10. It replaced the old and weary Internet Explorer and used EdgeHTML, a completely new rendering engine. That was up until recently when Microsoft decided to change it again. Although the name of Microsoft Edge carries on, the new version of the browser uses Chromium as its rendering engine. It's the same engine used by Google Chrome or Opera, and, besides being very fast, it also means that you can download and install extensions from the Chrome Web Store! Keep in mind though that, at the time of publishing this article, the new Microsoft Edge is not yet installed by default in Windows 10 (May 2020 Update). It's rumored to come to all of us via Windows Update this year, but for now, you can manually update it from its download webpage.
3. Game on with DirectX 12, Game Mode, and Xbox Game Bar
DirectX 12 is the latest graphics API developed by Microsoft, and it is available only in Windows 10. It comes with some exciting features, like low-level access to the hardware components that are inside your PC, especially the graphics card. Modern games that use DirectX 12 are now capable of efficiently using and distributing load among multiple GPU cards and multiple processor cores. To put it simply, Windows 10 makes new games run faster and better than they would on previous Windows operating systems.
Windows 10 also comes with a built-in Game Mode that prevents system background activities, such as Windows updates or notifications from apps, during gameplay, aiming to offer a more consistent gaming experience. Not only that, but you also get Xbox Game Bar which lets you do all kinds of useful things: capture screenshots and record the games you play, see details about your PC's performance while playing games, chat with your friends, and even control sound volume or play music on Spotify without having to Alt-Tab your game.
4. Snap your app windows, don't break them
The first time we saw Snap was in Windows 7. Microsoft didn't forget about this small yet incredibly useful feature and, in Windows 10, they improved it a lot. It's one of those great examples about how little things can mean a lot: with just a few gestures, you can quickly and neatly organize all the apps and windows you have opened on your desktop. Anyone who has tried this new feature can tell you just how much it can help you be more productive on your desktop.
5. Become a master of productivity with Task View, Timeline, and virtual desktops
Windows 10 is the first Windows version to introduce virtual desktops, available through what Microsoft calls the Task View. This is one of the best things in Windows 10, allowing you to create and use more than one desktop on your device. Furthermore, Task View also has something called the Timeline. Essentially, it's a tool that lets you continue the work you started on one of your Windows 10 devices on any of the other devices you have. For example, you can start working on a document in Microsoft Word on your main PC, close the file, and then continue editing it on your laptop. It's definitely a feature that can boost your productivity by allowing you to organize your work and apps better.
6. Windows Sandbox
Windows 10 is the first operating system made by Microsoft that bundles a built-in virtual machine of sorts that's easy to install and use by any user. It is called Windows Sandbox and you can use it on the Pro and Enterprise editions of Windows 10. It can be incredibly useful for all kinds of things such as testing apps that you don't trust or visiting websites that look deceitful. The latest version of Windows Sandbox even lets you customize it a bit, as well as make it run scripts and apps automatically. We're pretty sure that this app is going to become even better in the future.
7. Windows 10 loves Linux
Windows 10 includes an optional feature called Windows Subsystem for Linux, otherwise known simply as WSL. You can install it on your Windows 10 PC and then have your own Linux distribution like Ubuntu, openSUSE, or Fedora to work with. In the latest updates of Windows 10, Microsoft improved the integration with Linux even more, releasing the second version of WSL which brings better performance. Furthermore, Microsoft promised that WSL will also get support for graphics rendering. That means that, in the future, we should be able to also run Linux graphical apps directly from Windows 10, without having to run any virtual machines or dual boot into Linux.
8. Increasingly more apps are cross-platform
Many of the apps available for Windows 10 are developed to be cross-platform, meaning that they can work on any type of Windows 10 device, be it a PC, a notebook, a tablet, or even an Xbox One console.
That means there's no need for developers to create different versions of an app for each type of device, as the one app they develop scales seamlessly from the small factor screens like the ones used by tablets, to the biggest screens available like 30+ inch computer monitors. It might not seem too interesting for end-users but, long story short, that means a lot less work for developers and a lot more apps for us. Many such universal apps are commonly used by a large part of Windows 10 users: Word Mobile, Excel Mobile, PowerPoint Mobile, Outlook Mail, Calendar, or OneNote apps.
9. Control everything from the Action Center
Any smartphone user knows what notifications and quick actions are and how useful they can be. Microsoft brought this feature to all Windows 10 devices. Your notifications are placed together in the Action Center, which pops up from the right side of the screen. The notifications keep you updated with anything happening on your device, while the quick actions help you quickly and easily open all kinds of features like Tablet Mode, Wi-Fi, VPN, etc.
10. The best Task Manager ever
The Task Manager has always been an essential part of Windows operating systems, and also one of the best tools ever made by Microsoft. In Windows 10, it's even better and lets you do things like checking your system's performance, monitoring and killing processes, or controlling startup apps. Not only that, but it also shows you incredibly useful information about your devices. It's the go-to place when you want to see the utilization of your processor, RAM, disks, or to check the temperatures of your graphics card.
11. The Settings app gets better by the day
In Windows 10, the Settings app is the go-to place for controlling and setting your computer. Although there are still some things left in the old Control Panel, the Settings app steadily takes over. The main advantage of the Settings app is that it is easy to use both when using touch and when using a mouse and keyboard. It doesn't matter what type of device you're on, whether it's a traditional PC, a notebook, or a tablet.
12. Say Hello to Windows 10!
Microsoft promised that, at some point, we'd no longer need a password or a PIN code to log in to our Windows devices. Windows 10 can already do this with the help of a new and exciting feature called Windows Hello. Hello uses your face, iris or fingerprint as your biometric authentication method. The only downside, if you could call it that, is that you need specialized hardware for the best features of Windows Hello to work on your computer or device.
13. Windows Security
Digital security is essential in the world we're living in, and Microsoft knows it. Long are the days when you absolutely had to spend money on an antivirus to protect your computer. Windows 10 includes one of the best security toolkits you can find in an operating system. It's called Windows Security and provides you with the latest antivirus protection, scanning for malware, viruses, and other types of security threats in real-time. Windows Security is so good that it's actually better than some third-party security solutions.
