Microsoft可能会努力使他们的操作系统尽可能地实用和易于访问,但很容易查看小细节。您可能会对使用第三方程序可以向Windows 10添加多少新功能感到惊讶。
在本文中,我们列出了一些为您在Windows 10上的日常使用中添加新功能的最佳程序。该软件中的大多数要么完全免费,要么免费并在专业版中添加了附加功能。
TidyTabs – 将类似 Chrome 的(TidyTabs – Adds Chrome-like)标签添加到所有应用程序(Apps)
如果您的典型工作日涉及Word、Excel、记事本(Notepad)和各种其他程序中的多个窗口,那么您下载TidyTabs的那一刻就会感到轻松。
TidyTabs采用(TidyTabs)Chrome、Firefox和Edge等浏览器中使用的基于选项卡的方法,并将其引入Windows 10操作系统。使用TidyTabs,您可以将一个应用程序中所有打开的窗口添加到一个窗口中——然后您可以使用新选项卡在每个打开的窗口之间切换,就像在Chrome上一样。
您还可以选择要添加到每个窗口的选项卡。例如,您可以将Excel(Excel)工作表、Word文档和PowerPoint演示文稿拼凑在一个窗口下。在另一个窗口中,您可以拥有三个单独的记事本(Notepad)文件。
添加您自己的选项卡式窗口组就像将每个打开的程序拖到每个窗口顶部添加的新选项卡栏一样简单。如果您不需要某些程序的选项卡,请不要担心 - 您可以在TidyTabs设置中指定要完全排除的程序。
尽管TidyTabs添加了对功能的巨大改进,但它对您的 PC 性能的影响很小。TidyTabs的设计也尽可能谨慎,您可以完全控制选项卡的外观。
TidyTabs可免费下载供个人使用,但专业许可证的费用为 9 美元。专业许可证还增加了选项卡重命名、重新排序以及将超过 3 个窗口组合在一起的能力。
微软(Microsoft)还计划在未来的Windows 10 版本中发布一个类似的功能,称为 Sets(Windows 10 called Sets),但现在已经多次延迟,所以暂时使用它。
AquaSnap – Windows 10 Snap Assist但更好(Better)
AquaSnap与(AquaSnap)TidyTabs来自同一家公司,是Windows 10 Snap Assist功能的强大替代品。使用AquaSnap,您可以更好地控制窗口如何对齐。将多个窗口快速拼接在一起变得非常容易。
将它们对齐后,您还可以更好地控制拖动边框时如何调整窗口大小。安装AquaSnap后(AquaSnap),即使边框未完全对齐,窗口也会直观地对齐。您还可以快速单击一个窗口来填充桌面上任何剩余的可用空间。
AquaSnap可以免费下载,但专业许可证售价 18 美元,并附带鼠标快捷方式、窗口平铺以及将连接的窗口移动到一起的功能。
Seer – 文件预览,(Seer – File Previews)如Mac OS 快速查看(Mac OS Quick Look)
MacOS有一个名为“快速查看”(Quick Look)的功能,可让您从文件资源管理器中预览文件。这是微软(Microsoft)尚未添加到Windows 10的一项功能。值得庆幸的是,Seer暂时可以作为替代方案。
使用Seer,您只需按空格键即可从文件资源管理器中查看几乎所有文件的预览。想要预览Word文档或文本文件?完成(Done)。预览(Preview)视频或 GIF?容易(Easy)。
(Copy)从预览中复制内容?是(Yep)的。Seer支持数百种文件类型,并且预览直接从Seer运行,因此无需等待默认应用程序加载。
Seer的旧 beta 版本完全免费下载,但您必须支付 12.18 美元才能即时访问最新更新。
(F.lux – Better Night Light)F.lux –适用于Windows 10的(Windows 10)更好夜灯
Windows 10 现在具有内置夜灯(Night Light)功能,可减少显示器上的蓝光,但由于附加功能, F.lux仍然是更好的选择。如果您不知道,我们的显示器会产生蓝光,经研究会干扰睡眠。
F.lux有助于最大限度地减少蓝光,这样您就不会因显示器的光芒而在夜间保持清醒。使用F.lux,您可以设置一个计时器,以便您的屏幕逐渐淡出为红色渐变,从而消除屏幕上的蓝光。
您可以完全控制您希望显示器的“红色”程度,以及您希望显示器的亮度。您可以设置起床时间,这样您就可以在早上醒来时看到标准的显示颜色。
然后,当一天接近日落时,显示屏的颜色会慢慢变化,模仿昼夜的自然节奏。
F.lux完全免费使用,您现在甚至可以使用F.lux控制您的智能灯。
PushBullet – 访问(PushBullet – Access)和回复(Reply)移动通知(Mobile Notifications)和短信(SMS)
PushBullet在跨平台同步方面彻底改变了游戏规则。PushBullet可以轻松地将您的所有消息和通知从您的手机或平板电脑直接发送到您的 PC,以便您阅读和回复它们。
如果您曾经在房间另一边等待手机充电时感到焦虑,或者在被迫在设备之间来回切换时感到沮丧,Pushbullet会引起您的兴趣。

- 从您的手机发送(Send)和阅读短信。(仅限安卓(Android))

LightKey -(LightKey – Text Prediction)用于更快打字的文本预测(Faster Typing)

Best Programs to Add New Functionality to Windows 10
Microsoft maу try hard to make their operating system as functional and acсessible as possible, but it’s easy to look over thе small details. You may be surprised at just how much new functionality you can add to Windows 10 by using thіrd party рrograms.
In this article, we have listed some of the best programs that add new functionality to your everyday usage on Windows 10. Most of this software is either completely free, or free with additional features added in the pro version.
TidyTabs – Adds Chrome-like tabs to All Apps
If your typical work day involves multiple windows in Word, Excel, Notepad, and various other programs, you’ll immediately feel relief the moment you download TidyTabs.
TidyTabs takes the tab-based approach used in browsers like Chrome, Firefox, and Edge, and introduces it to the Windows 10 operating system. With TidyTabs, you can add all of your open windows from one app into a single window – you can then use new tabs to switch between each open window, just like you can on Chrome.
You can also choose which tabs to add to each window. For example, you could piece together an Excel sheet, a Word document, and a PowerPoint presentation under one window. In another window, you could have three separate Notepad files.
Adding your own groups of tabbed windows is as easy as dragging each open program into the new tab bar added at the top of each window. If you don’t need tabs on some programs, don’t worry – you can specify in the TidyTabs settings which programs to exclude completely.
Despite the massive improvement to functionality that TidyTabs adds, its impact on your PC’s performance is tiny. TidyTabs is also designed to be as discreet as possible, and you have full control over the appearance of the tabs.
TidyTabs is free to download for personal use, but a professional license costs $9. The professional license also adds tab renaming, reordering and the ability to group more than 3 windows together.
Microsoft is also planning to release a similar feature into a future build of Windows 10 called Sets, but it’s been delayed multiple times now, so use this for the time being.
AquaSnap – Windows 10 Snap Assist but Better
From the same company as TidyTabs, AquaSnap is a powerful replacement to the Windows 10 Snap Assist feature. With AquaSnap, you have more control over how your windows snap together. It becomes very easy to quickly snap together multiple windows.
Once they have been snapped together, you can also have more control over how the windows are resized when dragging their borders. With AquaSnap installed, windows will intuitively snap together, even if the borders aren’t completely aligned. You can also quickly click a window to fill in any remaining available space on your desktop.
AquaSnap can be downloaded for free, but a professional license costs $18 and comes with mouse shortcuts, window tiling, and the ability to move connected windows together.
Seer – File Previews Like Mac OS Quick Look
MacOS has a feature called Quick Look that allows you to preview files from within the file explorer. It’s a feature that Microsoft has yet to add to Windows 10. Thankfully, Seer works as an alternative for the time being.
With Seer, you can simply press the spacebar to view a preview of almost any file from within the file explorer. Want to preview a Word document or text file? Done. Preview videos or gifs? Easy.
Copy content from within the previews? Yep. Seer supports hundreds of file types and the previews run straight from Seer, so there’s no need to wait for your default apps to load up.
Older beta versions of Seer are completely free to download, but you must pay $12.18 to get instant access to the latest updates.
F.lux – Better Night Light for Windows 10
Windows 10 now has a built-in Night Light feature for reducing blue light on your display, but F.lux is still a better option thanks to additional functionality. If you didn’t know, our displays produce blue light that has been studied to disrupt sleep.
F.lux helps to minimize the blue light so that you aren’t kept up at night by the glow of your display. With F.lux, you can set a timer so that your screen gradually fades to a red gradient, removing the blue light from your screen.
You are given full control over how ‘red’ you’d like your display to be, as well as how dimmed you’d like your display to go. You are given settings for your wake up time, so that you can wake up in the morning to the standard display colors.
Then, as the day nears closer to sunset, the display will slowly shift in color, mimicking the natural rhythm of night and day.
F.lux is completely free to use and you can now even control your smart lights with F.lux.
PushBullet – Access and Reply to Mobile Notifications and SMS
PushBullet completely changes the game when it comes to cross-platform synchronization. PushBullet can easily send all of your messages and notifications from your phone or tablet straight to your PC so that you can read and respond to them.
If you’ve ever had anxiety whilst waiting for your phone to charge on the other side of the room, or frustration at being forced to go back and forth between devices, Pushbullet will take your interest.
Once Pushbullet is installed on your phone and on either Windows, Chrome or Firefox, you can get access to the following features:
- Send and read text messages from your phone. (Android only)
- See your phone’s notifications. (iPhone users must use Mac)
- Send links between devices.
- Send files between devices.
Pushbullet can be downloaded and used for free, but you’re limited to 100 texts/month, 25MB per sent file and 2GB of storage space. The pro version gives you unlimited texts, 100GB of storage, up to 1GB per sent file, and universal copy and paste. You can pay for Pushbullet Pro monthly at $4.99/month, or yearly at $39.99 a year.
LightKey – Text Prediction for Faster Typing
Ever tried to type on your smartphone without using predictive text? You’ll most likely find your typing to be slow and terribly inaccurate. Thanks to predictive typing, these problems are completely removed.
LightKey brings that same predictive typing functionality to Windows in an attempt to speed up your typing. LightKey claims they can increase your typing efficiency considerably by saving up to 40% of your keystrokes. With LightKey installed, each word will have a predicted option in grey – at any point you can press to fill out the predicted option.
LightKey also includes multi-word prediction for when you type out common phrases. Just like the predictive text on our smartphones, LightKey will learn about your usage as you type, meaning that it will get better the more you use it.
Lightkey can be an excellent way to ensure your grammar and spelling is accurate at all times, as well. Lightkey can be used for free, or you can pay $5.99 per month for a business subscription.
