If you're new to Windows 11, the first thing that jumps out at you is the placement of the Start button. Long located in the lower-left corner of the screen, it's now centered with the rest of the icons on the taskbar. But don't worry, you can change it.
Right-click the taskbar and open Taskbar Settings. From the Taskbar Behaviors drop-down menu, change the Taskbar Alignment to Left.
Your taskbar icons move to the left, and the Start button goes back where it belongs.
Windows applications often configure themselves to start automatically when you sign in to your PC. These add clutter to your taskbar's notification area and slow down the startup process. Applications running in the background can also waste valuable system resources. I recommend tweaking your PC's startup apps and turning off anything you don't use.
Simply head to Settings > Apps > Startup. If you don't want an application to launch when you sign in, flip its switch to Off. The same is possible via the Task Manager, where you can even see your last BIOS startup time. You can still launch any disabled application from a desktop shortcut or the Start menu; it just won't start when you sign in to Windows.
Upgrade Your Copy-Paste Experience
Windows 11 has a Clipboard History feature that remembers text snippets and images you recently copied. To access it, press Windows+V. A pop-up will prompt you to enable Clipboard History if you haven't already. You can also click the little pin icon to pin copied items to the clipboard history for easy access later.

Customize the Quick Settings Panel
Windows 11 separates the Quick Settings that appear in the Action Center in Windows 10 from that panel's notifications. Click the area of the taskbar that has Wi-Fi, speaker, and battery icons to open a menu that lets you control Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, projection to an external display, airplane mode, battery-saver mode, and more. As of the 24H2 update of Windows 11, you can no longer add or remove items (unless you're the type who likes to dig into the registry). Instead, the panel scrolls up and down to reveal all options, and you can place them to taste by clicking and dragging with your mouse cursor. Bonus tip: If you're using a Surface PC, you can switch between the gorgeous "Enhanced" mode and the standard sRGB color mode in this panel.
Create and Manage Multiple Desktops.
Microsoft replaces the old Task View button with a redesigned icon on the taskbar, which makes it easier to create and manage multiple desktops. Just hover over the icon to see any open virtual desktops or create a new desktop. You can then rearrange these desktops as necessary and drag apps from one desktop to another.
You can use different wallpapers for each virtual desktop to better differentiate them. Right-click on the desktop, choose Personalize > Background, and then pick a distinct image. Note that this works only for the Background choice, not for Themes. If you choose a Theme, it applies to all virtual desktops. After applying a theme, however, you can change the background of each desktop. If you do, you see a cool cross-fade effect between the two backgrounds when you switch between them.
Connect Your Phone for Texts, Calls, and More
Windows 11's Phone Link app enables you to wirelessly connect your smartphone, allowing you to view phone notifications on your PC, respond to text messages, and make calls. If you use an Android phone, you can also play music and, with select models, run multiple phone apps on your PC's screen. It's even possible to use your phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot or a webcam. The Start menu now offers a panel for quick access to your phone's activity. A recent update to the Settings app introduces the ability to toggle related functions, including displaying your phone in File Explorer and enabling cross-device copying and pasting. You can remotely lock your PC using your phone, and resume app activities between the devices.
