start menu for easy access. More apps can be installed via the Microsoft
Store.

The notification menu is accessible by clicking on the time/date in the lower-
right comer of the screen. It will show notifications such as updates, emails
received, calendar reminders, and allows for quick access to settings (for
example, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, brightness).

charge the laptop to keep the battery capacity high, as batteries naturally
