What is the function of the 'Lock Screen' in Windows?

The lock screen is the screen displayed when the computer is locked. You can set a custom image or display on this screen, which can be modified in the personalization settings. The shortcut to lock the screen is Windows + L.

What is the difference between a 'theme' and a 'background' in Windows customization?

A 'background' refers specifically to the wallpaper or image shown on the desktop, while a 'theme' encompasses a broader range of customizations. A theme in Windows can change several aspects of the system at once, such as background, window colors, and sounds.

What are 'Dynamic Tiles' in the Start menu, and how can they be customized?

Dynamic Tiles in the Start menu are customizable blocks that can display apps, news, weather, and other content. Users can resize these tiles, move them around, or unpin them from the Start menu to better organize their layout.

How can Windows users quickly access their most-used applications?
