Windows 8.1 Start Screen

The Windows 8.1 Start screen displays a list of default and custom live

tiles, which act as shortcuts to the installed apps.

Live tiles on your Start screen change and update in real time to show

news and sports updates, weather updates, social‑networking feeds,

and so on.

The tile‑based user interface gives you direct access to your most

recently used apps, emails, photos, music, videos, contacts, updates

from social‑networking sites, and frequently viewed websites. You can

pin your favorite apps as tiles to customize the Start screen.

You also can personalize the Start screen by setting your favorite

picture as the wallpaper.

NOTE: Live tiles can be added or removed by using Pin to

taskbar , Pin to Start , or Unpin from Start options.
