高质量工作的关键是高质量的工作空间。有组织的，一切都在它的位置的地方。这是Windows(Windows)工具栏背后的想法之一。让我们学习如何充分利用它。
Windows工具栏是屏幕底部的条带，Windows按钮(Windows)位于左侧，时钟位于右侧。中间可以有很多东西。让我们看看它们，看看它们能为您做什么。
(Windows Button Shortcut)实用程序的Windows 按钮快捷方式
这个你已经知道了。它是工具栏最左角的Windows图标。(Windows)点击它会弹出开始菜单(Start menu)；您通往Windows(Windows)中所有程序和其他一切的门户。
您不知道的是，您可以右键单击它以获取Windows实用程序的迷你菜单，如任务管理器(Task Manager)(Task Manager)、应用程序和功能(Apps and Features)，甚至Windows PowerShell。如果您不使用 PowerShell，则需要了解(using PowerShell you need to learn)它。
自定义您的计算机(Your Computer)和网络搜索(Web Search)
Windows按钮旁边的搜索字段会按照它的说明进行操作。它搜索。单击它时，将出现搜索窗格。您会看到最重要的不同类别。它默认为All，这意味着它将搜索您的所有计算机(search all of your computer)和网络。
单击(Click)
其中一个类别可将搜索范围缩小到Apps、
Documents、Email、Web等。
在此窗格的右上角，您将看到一个三点菜单。单击(Click)
它，您将可以选择添加帐户或更改您的
搜索设置(Search Settings )和索引选项(Indexing Options)。
用你的声音做笔记(Make Notes)和提醒(Reminders)
点击搜索栏旁边的圆圈图标可以唤醒Windows 的虚拟语音助手(, Windows’ virtual and voice-activated assistant)Cortana。
你知道你可以给Cortana口头命令在Windows中执行操作，比如“打开文件资源管理器”(“Open File Explorer” )，Cortana会打开它。你可以向Cortana提问，它会尝试从网络上为你获取答案，它也会尝试口头回答你的问题。
尝试诸如“现在几点了？”之类的问题。(“What time is it?”)或“明天天气如何？” (“What’s the weather tomorrow?”). Cortana会告诉你当地时间和天气。
你(Did)知道Cortana也可以为你做笔记并提醒你重要的事情吗？单击(Click)Cortana图标，在打开的菜单中，左上角附近有一个笔记本图标。
单击(Click)它以了解如何在旅途中做小笔记，并将其他称为“技能(Skills)”的服务添加到Cortana，用于健身追踪器、音乐，甚至订购食物。
拥有多个桌面
任务栏上Cortana(Cortana)圆圈旁边是任务视图(Task View)
图标。点击它会做一些事情，比如给你一个你最近做过的事情的历史，并向你展示你现在打开的所有程序。
但最好的功能是新桌面(New Desktop )功能。不是每个人都可以拥有两个或更多显示器(have two or more monitors)，但您可以拥有多个桌面，每个桌面都打开自己的程序。
拥有一个用于工作的桌面和另一个用于在Internet(Internet)上闲逛的桌面怎么样？这使您能够在需要时专注于工作，但也可以在您稍事休息(take a little break)时跳转到您的社交网站。
您如何使用此功能取决于您，但我们相信您会很好地使用它。
从固定应用中获得更多
可以将您喜爱的应用程序固定到任务栏(pin your favourite apps to the taskbar)，真是太好了。这是我们最喜欢它的地方。我们需要开展业务的所有程序，只需点击一下即可。
但是您是否右键单击了这些应用程序？你可能会大吃一惊。
打开常规或私人浏览(Browsing)实例
如果您右键单击浏览器应用程序，您可以打开一个新的常规窗口或一个隐私浏览实例(private browsing instance)。您还可以查看您最近的站点历史记录，允许您单击它们以打开已经指向该站点的浏览器。多么方便！
访问应用程序常用(Apps Frequently)功能
根据应用程序，将列出应用程序的常用功能列表。
例如，当使用SnagIt时，您会看到Start Capture、Toggle Capture Window、Create New Image、Convert Images或打开SnagIt 12 Editor的选项。
尝试在任务栏中右键单击您最喜欢的应用程序以查看可能性。
移动应用程序或再次(Again)找到(App Around Or Find)它
您还可以从固定的应用程序中挤出一件事。知道(Know)当您将鼠标悬停在它们上时，它会显示应用程序窗口的小预览吗？右键单击该菜单可让您恢复、移动、调整大小、最小化或最大化窗口。
这对于恢复屏幕外的窗口非常方便，您只是找不到它。
工具栏，工具栏，工具栏
右键单击(Right-click)
任务栏并转到工具栏(Toolbars )选择。从那里您可以添加地址(Address)、链接(Links)和桌面(Desktop )工具栏。如果这还不够，您还可以创建和添加自己的自定义工具栏。
地址工具栏
这就像您的网络浏览器中的地址栏，只是在您的任务栏中。输入网站地址，然后点击进入。
您的默认浏览器将打开并直接转到该页面。它保留了最近访问过的页面的历史记录，因此您也可以从中进行选择。
链接和桌面工具栏
这些工具栏可让您轻松访问桌面(Desktop)和链接(Links)文件夹中的内容。
链接通常在Internet Explorer (IE) 中创建，因此如果您不使用 IE，则需要从当前浏览器中复制书签并将其放入C:\Users\User\Favorites\Links
桌面(Desktop)工具栏做类似的事情。
它向您显示桌面上的内容。它还使您可以访问计算机上的高使用位置。你可以从这里打开它们。
创建自己的工具栏
在工具栏(Toolbars)子菜单中，有选项新工具栏(New toolbar…)...。单击(Click)它并打开文件资源管理器。(File Explorer)只需(Just)导航到您想要轻松访问的文件夹并选择它。
如果您有一个经常使用的项目文件夹，这可能是访问它的有用方法。
变得粘稠和粗略
Windows Ink Workspace任务栏图标是您进行涂鸦和快速记笔记的门户。单击它可以让您快速访问便笺(Sticky Notes)、画板(Sketchpad)和Snip and Sketch。
看看它们，它们可能对你有用。
来自屏幕键盘的(Onscreen Keyboard)真实表情
你现在在一个真正的键盘上打字，那你为什么需要一个屏幕键盘呢？好吧，当您使用平板电脑时，它会派上用场。如果您的键盘由于某种原因出现故障，它也会派上用场。
但最有趣的用途是访问大量表情符号以放入任何Windows程序。是的，您甚至可以在Excel中“耸耸肩” 。你为什么想这么做？我不知道。
但是等等……还有更多！
既然您知道任务栏还有更多内容，请花点时间四处逛逛。使用右键单击(Use your right-click )并单击所有内容。
不要害怕，你不会破坏你的电脑。你不能做任何无法修复的事情。错误(Mistakes)等于学习，学习就是生活。
12 Things You Didn’t Know You Could Do With The Windows 10 Taskbar
A key tо quality work is a quality workspace. Organized, a place for everything and everything іn its place. That’s onе of the ideas behind the Windows toolbar. Let’s learn how to make the most of it.
The Windows toolbar is the strip across the bottom of your screen where the Windows button is on the left and the clock is on the right. There can be many things in between. Let’s look at them and see what they can do for you.
Windows Button Shortcut To Utilities
This
one you already know about. It’s the Windows icon in the leftmost
corner of the toolbar. Clicking on it brings up the Start menu;
your gateway to all the programs and everything else in Windows.
What you didn’t know is that you can right-click on it to get a mini-menu of Windows utilities like Task Manager, Apps and Features, and even Windows PowerShell. If you aren’t using PowerShell you need to learn about it.
Customize Your Computer & Web Search
The search field next to the Windows button does what it says. It searches. When you click on it, the search pane appears. You’ll see across the top different categories. It defaults to All, meaning that it will search all of your computer and the web.
Click
on one of the categories to narrow down your search to Apps,
Documents, Email, Web, and more.
In
the top-right corner of this pane, you’ll a three-dots menu. Click
on that and you’ll have the option to add accounts or change your
Search Settings and Indexing Options.
Use Your Voice To Make Notes & Reminders
Clicking on the circle icon next to the search bar wakes up Cortana, Windows’ virtual and voice-activated assistant.
You know you can give Cortana verbal commands to do things in Windows, like, “Open File Explorer” and Cortana will open it. You can ask Cortana questions, it will try to get the answer from the web for you, and it will verbally try to answer your question too.
Try questions like “What time is it?” or “What’s the weather tomorrow?”. Cortana will tell you your local time and weather.
Did you know Cortana can take notes for you too and remind you of important things? Click on the Cortana icon and in the menu that opens, there’s a notebook icon near the top-left corner.
Click on that to find out how you can make little notes on the go and add other services known as ‘Skills’ to Cortana for fitness trackers, music, or even order food.
Have Multiple Desktops
Right
next to the Cortana circle on the taskbar is the Task View
icon. Clicking on that does a few things, like give you a history of
what you’ve done lately and show you all the programs you have open
right now.
But the best feature is the New Desktop feature. Not everyone can have two or more monitors, but you can have several desktops, each with their own programs open.
How about having one desktop for doing work and another desktop for just messing around on the Internet? This gives you the ability to focus on work when you need to, but also jump over to your social sites when you take a little break.
How you use this feature is up to you, but we’re sure you’ll find a good use for it.
Get More From Pinned Apps
It’s great that you can pin your favourite apps to the taskbar. It’s the thing that we love most about it. All the programs we need to get down to business, just a click away.
But have you right-clicked on those apps? You may be in for a surprise.
Open a Regular or
Private Browsing Instance
If you right-click on a browser app, you can open a new regular window or a private browsing instance. You can also see your recent history of sites, allowing you to click on them to open the browser already pointed at that site. How convenient!
Access The Apps Frequently Used Features
Depending on the app, there will be a list of frequently-used features of the app listed.
For example, when using SnagIt, you’ll see options to Start Capture, Toggle Capture Window, Create New Image, Convert Images, or open SnagIt 12 Editor.
Try
right-clicking on your favorite apps in the taskbar to see the
possibilities.
Move The App Around Or Find it Again
There’s
just one more thing that you can squeeze out of pinned apps. Know how
when you mouse over them, it shows a little preview of the app’s
window? Right-click on that for a menu that allows you to restore,
move, resize, minimize or maximize the window.
This
can be really handy for restoring a window that is off-screen and you
just can’t find it.
Toolbars, Toolbars, Toolbars
Right-click
on the taskbar and go to the Toolbars selection. From there
you can add the Address, Links, and Desktop toolbar.
If that’s not enough, you can also create and add your own custom
toolbars.
Address Toolbar
This is just like the address bar in your web browser, only in your taskbar. Type in the address of a website and tap enter.
Your default browser will open up and go directly to that page. It keeps a history of recently visited pages, so you can select from those as well.
Links & Desktop Toolbars
These toolbars make it easy to access what’s on your Desktop and in the Links folder.
The links are typically created in Internet Explorer (IE), so if you don’t use IE, you’ll need to copy your bookmarks from your current browser and put them in C:\Users\User\Favorites\Links
The
Desktop toolbar does a similar thing. It shows you what’s on your
desktop. It also gives you access to high-use locations on your
computer. You can open them all from here.
Create Your Own
Toolbar
In the Toolbars sub-menu, there’s the option New toolbar…. Click on that and File Explorer opens. Just navigate to the folder you want easy access to and select it.
If you have a project folder you use a lot, this could be a helpful way to access it.
Get Sticky & Sketchy
The Windows Ink Workspace taskbar icon is your gateway to doing doodles and making quick notes. Clicking on it will give you quick access to Sticky Notes, Sketchpad, and Snip and Sketch.
Check them out, they may be useful to you.
Real Emoticons From Onscreen Keyboard
You’re typing on a real keyboard now, so why would you need an onscreen one? Well, it comes in handy when you’re using a tablet. It also comes in handy if your keyboard fails for some reason.
But the most fun use is to access a vast range of emoticons to put into any Windows program. Yes, you can even put a ‘shruggie’ in Excel. Why would you want to do that? I don’t know.
But Wait…There’s More!
Now that you know there’s more to the taskbar, take some time and poke around. Use your right-click and click on everything.
Don’t be afraid, you won’t break your computer. You can’t do anything that can’t be repaired. Mistakes equal learning and learning is living.
