| Microsoft OneDrive is a pretty solid cloud storage offering, and it’s deeply integrated into Windows.

| Microsoft doesn’t want you to disable Cortana. You used to be able to turn Cortana off in Windows 10, but Microsoft removed that easy toggle switch in the Anniversary Update.

| Good window management is important for getting things done quickly and efficiently on any computer. While most users know how to "snap" windows to the sides of the display on Windows and macOS, it's always surprising how many don't realize this is also available on Chromebooks. In fact, it’s even more powerful. | |
| The macOS dock normally appears at the bottom of your screen, but it doesn’t have to. The dock is customizable in quite a few ways you might not be aware of, especially if you’re a new Mac user. | |
| The free Windows 10 upgrade offer is finally over, and Microsoft will stop harassing Windows 7 and 8.1 users with misleading upgrade popups. But Windows 7 and 8.1 aren’t done for. They’re both solid operating systems that Microsoft will be officially supporting for years to come. | |
