Windows 7 have a nifty feature which combines the windows of opened applications under the same taskbar button. If you don't like it you can always turn it off.
A less known but very useful feature that works since Windows XP has been released. You can easily rename a bunch of files in a matter of seconds, let me show you how.
Virtual Hard Disk or VHD acts like a normal hard drive built into your computer. Cool thing is, it comes in a form of a single file so you can make a copy of it and virtually attach it to any other Windows computer.
If you need, besides major accounts, an extra account with limited access to data, you can add Windows 8 Guest account. The process is almost the same as in Windows 7.
