Hello everyone, I'm David Stay.
Today I will teach you a few Windows 11 optimization tips. Guaranteed to work!
Without further ado, get started!
There are four icons by default to the right of the Start menu button. They are Search, Task View, Widgets, and Chat.
Unlike other programs, these four icons can be unpinned by right-clicking. In fact, as long as you right-click in the blank space of the taskbar and select "Taskbar Settings", you can see the display switch of these four icons.
Turn off the switch icon and disappear from the taskbar.
This "search" is the same as the function of Win10, you can search the software, search for various settings, very practical.
I also did an episode of the show dedicated to this search function, interested friends can go to my space to see. But Win11 also adds a search bar to the top of the Start menu. After clicking, this "Search" function also pops up.
So this makes the "search" icon optional, and you can consider turning it off to save a position.
Task View is a new feature of Windows 11 that is easier to use than Windows 10, allowing you to switch windows and manage virtual desktops. Retention is recommended.
Of course, if you use the shortcut key operation, you can also turn off this icon. The default shortcut key is "Win+Tab", and when pressed, "Task View" will appear directly.
This "widget" is actually the taskbar weather that appears after a win10 update.
Personally, I think that at present, in addition to weather forecasting, other uses are not much. Depending on individual needs, you can choose whether to turn it off or not.
The last "chat" is actually Microsoft's new "Teams" chat software in Win11, and it is currently very imperfect.
We usually use WeChat and so on, the opportunity to use "Teams" should not be much, still according to personal needs to choose whether to close.
Once these four icons are set, let's take a look at the lower right corner of the taskbar.
Do you think that the "Chat" icon "Teams" software just turned off is not running? No！ It also runs in the background, silently consuming system resources.
Even if you turn it off from the bottom right corner, restart your computer and it will run automatically. And there's also a silently running "OneDrive" and a Bluetooth icon.
Let's talk one by one. If you have this Bluetooth icon in the lower right corner of your computer, you can right-click on it and select "Delete Icon" and it will not appear again. Some friends will ask, deleted the Bluetooth icon, how to connect with the Bluetooth device in the future? In fact, there are more perfect Bluetooth settings in the system settings.
You can connect and manage Bluetooth devices here.
Let's talk about Teams and OneDrive. Here's another feature that's easy to use. Open "System Settings", find "Applications" on the left, and you can see an option called "Startup" on the right, and after clicking on it, you will open the Windows11 boot self-start application manager.
Those programs that run on the boot are all here, and the programs that do not need to start automatically are turned off, and the boot will be much faster. And there's Teams and OneDrive. As you can see, the evaluation given by the system is that this program has a great impact on booting.
Of course, there are many friends who need to use these software. Just set the switch here according to your personal needs.
Finally, we right-click on the Start Menu icon and select "Apps & Features" at the top, where you can manage all the system-built and personally installed programs just like Win10.
Things like Cortana, Teams, OneDrive, etc. can all be uninstalled here. I'll give you a list of a few of the names and corresponding features of the programs that come with you. If you think it's useless, uninstall it.
Well, today I will say so much, if you think it is useful, I hope you can pay more attention, comment and forward, thank you, we will see you in the next issue!
Simple, one-look scientific and technological knowledge and use skills are all in "David Stay Technology", welcome everyone to pay attention to and forward, the first time to watch the video I made. If you think this episode is useful, I hope that everyone can come to a triple or charge. I will bring you more useful technical tips.
Thank you. We'll see you next time!
