Re: Windows 8.1

Are you using the desktop or the apps ? You can find all the usual bits from win7 if you right click in the left bottom corner of the screen, select desktop then right click and all the disk management stuff is there.

Re: Windows 8.1

Hi Patsy sorry I am no help, I have windows 8 having refused the automatic upgrade to 8.1 for the moment.

Anything you are unsure of Google the details and you should find the answer

Re: Windows 8.1

The snipping tool is probably the same as for W8..
...go the the 'charms bar', choose 'search' than 'Apps' and type in 'snipping tool' and up it pops ..
