23. Tinker with tablet mode<br />

<strong>Windows</strong> 10’s Continuum, which dynamically switches<br />

from the traditional desktop to a more Metro-like<br />

touch interface when you’re using a touchscreen, is<br />

supposed to kick into action when you connect or<br />

disconnect a keyboard from your <strong>Windows</strong> hybrid or<br />

tablet, or you can activate it manually via the Action<br />

Center. But you can also tweak how the operating<br />

system handles Continuum.<br />

Simply search for ‘Tablet Mode’ and select the<br />

‘Tablet Mode Settings’ option that appears. Here, you’ll<br />

be able to tell <strong>Windows</strong> whether you want to even use<br />

Tablet Mode on this device, and specify how you want<br />

to handle Tablet Mode prompts if so. You can also tell<br />

<strong>Windows</strong> to keep your open and pinned apps on the<br />

taskbar when in Tablet Mode if you so desire, as well<br />

as to boot into tablet mode at startup.<br />
