Thanks a million for making this. Just got a new Windows 8.1-installed laptop to replace my 20-year old Win XP desktop; haven't felt THAT lost since the last time I used a Mac!
Lol at all the hate in the comments. some of you should realize this is supposed to be a simple tutorial not a review or anything else right? While I've been using windows 8 now for months I've found this helpful in showing a friend in how to learn it
Thank you so much for this tutorial. Just got a new laptop with Windows 8.1 installed. I had no idea what to do. This helps a lot. It's enough to get me started and to play around with it.
People are mad this tutorial is clear? Haha. That's great. I bet they go comment on an unclear one that they are mad its unclear. Anyways, good basic tutorial. Some should find this helpful. Thanks
It never clicked with me until I watched this video that the reason there is no Start button is because you're already looking at what would be there *should* you click on it. The light came on!! Oh, and happy birthday Reita!
As a former Mac user, Windows is like learning a new language. Thank you for the informative videos. They help me to understand how to use my new laptop. I do have to say that Windows is a lot more complicated to use than it needs to be but the videos help. Thanks.
At first I was very skeptical towards the new windows 8 and because I wanted to buy a new computer so I was very confused because I was not sure I'd bet on an old operating system or Windows 8. But now, after a week with Windows 8.1 starts I like it more and more and as much of the operating system is similar to my android on my samsung galaxy note 3 so this feels ok, I understand those who find it difficult to learn this but give it some time, you'll probably like it
YellawayHD i dont really miss a start menu to be honest. you now have that start screen with the tiles where you can add or delete all the program shortcuts you want. (and even make it look nice :P ) and if you need a program thats not in that screen you just type it in. no need to click a search icon or whatever, just type it and the program will be found. i love it.
I was ready to throw my new windows 8.1 pc out the window because none of the commands were easy to understand or find. Your excellent tutorials helped me understand how to use this new operating system. I have used your tutorials to train my family members on using windows 8.1 as well, and they love them too!
Thanks for your easy to follow and thorough video. Your voice seems to have the correct level of enthusiasm for the topic. 8.1 is a mess. I'd like to say it is very focused on touch interface and that is all, but everything is now buried in random places. Sigh.
Damn when I bought my new computer I wanted to just use it, This the Biggest piece of crap fever from windows, So frustrating I have to waste my time watching tutorials. Thanks Jag for this tutorial.
I use Windows 8.1 and I loved using it (Except for every MSN apps that Microsoft keeps discontinuing it and let you to open it Microsoft Edge which is on Windows 10.)
I'm a Mac user but needed to get a windows based notebook for work. The last time I used windows was Win7. Thanks for the video and how to download the Win 7 start button.
I've yet to change to Windows 8 but it doesn't look any stupider than any of the previous versions of Windows. I had some affection for Windows 98 but that was sixteen years ago. I suspect I'll get used to this one, too.
I had windows 8 until windows 10 and for some reason I don't remember much about it haha, except that the whole design worked and looked much better on a tablet.
Thanks, good tutorial, helped me to move forward. To migrate to 8.1 we just need to forget & leave everything behind. It's not that hard, but needs a re-thinking and a fresh open mind,
Agreed. Good tutorial. I think this so called upgrade is a dogs breakfast but we have to move forward or search "bring back start button" then load some software to go backwards. I'm going to try to go forward -thanks to these video's.
Getting familiar with the tangible functionality of 8.1, some obvious differences from the video which seem to be improvements to me. Innovation is always trial and error. While I am not fond of the aesthetics, under the hood it seems to be very good. A RUclipsr I subscribe to was one of the developers to program Win 8. While I like the basic desktop UI of pre 8 operating systems, this one has some very useful integration that make it a wonderful UI for my 2560x1080 monitor. I am still a novice with the system, but the 8.1 version brings back the Start Menu, and relocates some basic controls needed. While I dislike over redundancy, the overall simplicity of the UI is allowing me to pick how I want to do something Vs forcing me to do it the only way programmed into it. And while I dislike over redundancy, people with visual or physical disabilities may require access to the menus in the most annoying ways the majority of users would not. Overall, at a glance I like it more than Windows 7. As all is compatible with Windows 8 I feel there is nothing lost aside from functionalities of the Windows 7 U.I. We will see as time rolls on. There is no way this is the worst ever. Anyone who claims that has never used Windows Millennium.
the new windows 8 and 8.1 is so much better than windows 7. Win 7 was so out dated in my opinion. Don't know why everyone is pissed off. I guess cause it's so different, it's harder to use at the start and probably needs some sort of tutorial when first learning how to use it (Can't remember if it had one)
Hey thanks JAGTutorials. I just got a new Qosmio with Windows 8.1. This tutorial is excellent. The narrator is a little monotone, but otherwise, great presentation and easy to follow.
Sometimes, to adapt to change opens up new opportunities however, on the face of things, lets hope windows 10 pleases more users than windows 8/8.1 has done!
great tutorial. Windows 8 is not user friendly. In fact I feel it takes up more time. I especially hate the task bar at bottom and t popping up all the time. sometimes apps open on their own. Urr. This video was helpful and answered some question I have been having. Thanks
In a time where so many people are shifting over to Apple, this was a huge own goal for Microsoft. I've just bought a new laptop with Windows 8.1 and it's left me banging my head against the wall in frustration. I'm either going to install Windows 7, or return the laptop and go with a Macbook, because at least IOS has a more traditional OS feel about it.
If I have to watch tutorial videos to use windows it pretty much explains how much they have fucked up Windows 8. And also I don't see any advantages at all of using this new UI over the traditional windows UI. If there were some great advantages of using this new UI, it would have been worth learning it. But right now it looks like people have bought PCs with this shit on it and are now having to learn it so that they can at least use their new PCs. I bet if people were offered a free downgrade to Windows 7, 90% of people using Windows 8 today with pounce on it! That itself shows that Windows 8 is a failure being force fed to the masses. Period
Rods toy box duh than keep the old one, lol. Or go back to a typewriter. Why watch this video if you don't care to learn to learn the simple changes of a new system.
crazypete8888 If the old comp fucks up I won't have any choice but to get a new one. A typewriter does totally different things to a PC so they are incomparable.
...ummm... you know you can transfer Windows 7 licenses to different PCs right? Or get a Windows 8 PC with downgrade rights to Windows 7? Or get a new PC that has Windows 7 installed? Or get a Windows 8 PC and install Windows 7 on it yourself? It really isn't that complicated. Then again Windows 8 isn't complicated either and you refuse to want to figure it out. I ordered a Dell last week and had the option of Window 8.1, Windows 8.1 Pro, or Windows 7 Pro. It is as simple as clicking a box.
This is a pretty old video. I'm running windows 8.1 and my GUI does not show a number of the windows and tabs that you are showing on your screen. Also, for example, when I move the mouse to the top in the start screen, I don't get the little hand. Things like that are not the same. Otherwise, the video was helpful because the last time I even had a running computer, I was running windows 7. Thank you for the instruction,
People who hate Windows 8/8.1 blindly without ever using it is an idiot. It is an awesome upgrade for your old windows in term of performance, quality and appearance. And those who keep pestering about the start button, its no longer valid because there are tons of software out there that you can get for free to bring it back however you want. Just because Microsoft didn't provide it doesn't mean that you can't get it.
I wouldn't really use classic start menu as it just ruins the new feeling (+ the point of having touch screen), just spend few hours if not just 10 minutes of your time on getting used to new looks etc. and you don't really actually notice anything bad about it. Yes it is annoying at first, but once you start using multiple software at the same time and want to keep your Facebook app and email etc. running on background you might actually notice some benefit over it.
Ville Tuuras From what I've seen of it so far though, it's very much made for touch-screen devices. I can imagine it's great for them, but it's not so great for more traditional desktops or laptops. I personally would have no intention of switching to Windows 8/8.1, but sooner or later Windows 7 is no longer going to be available, and we'll be forced to switch to newer versions. Only watching these videos to make sure I'm ready for when that day arrives :L
kyogreblast What I've also noticed is that in the shops there are few laptops with touch screen so it's targeting a feature that laptops commonly lack. Well done Microsoft.
David G I don't know where you are but I have seen quite many laptops with touch screen. In fact 90% of laptops which comes with windows 8.1 what I have seen contain touch screen. Also it's not difficult to use metro interface with simple keyboard and mouse, it just looks like you can't use it without touch screen. Also you can just attach your lap top to touch screen if you want or use remote. Windows 7 is just easier to use, but it's not as fast and light as windows 8.1 If you want games and cheap PC then use Windows and don't complain about it based on how it looks or how you feel. If you want quallity and style get Macintosh, then you can at least complain something.
Where are my videos I downloaded from camera. where are my photos and why do I have some photos in file locations and when I go to share a photo say on face book at prompts me to photos I don't want to share and cannot find how I can share the photo I want. . This is a fricking mess as far as I am concerned and the worst OS I have ever experienced. It requires so much time just to get around. This OS is for people who want apps and cluttered crap. Oh and microsoft wants me to log into an account that hasnt existed for over 3 years and the url does not exist so now i am frozen out of microsoft. But wait they can send me an email to switch the account. How in the hell can I open an email in an account that doesn't exist. I hate it
I played with this. I had it for a month and sold by 8 ridden pc on ebay, a $121 lost. Windows 8 is for pc tablets, not for desk tops. Its too bad they discontinued XP support. 7 is the most reliable after XP. I give Windows 8 a C+ on a desktop, but an A on a pc tablet!
did they update start screen so you cant put 2 medium and 1 wide all beside each other without creating a space and new column? It does't let me and puts in a new group.
So I'm on my youtube app and there is this huge ass bar at the bottom of my screen that shows my tabs, address bar, refresh button ect, is there any way to hide it?
This seems like it'll take a little learning, but I think some people in the comments are a way too angry about this. I'd rather learn a new OS for 400 than pay 1000 for an apple.
Hi, all my tiles on the start screen are gone and I've tried everything but i cant seem to restore it. Can you perhaps make a video on how to fix that? its windows 8.1 Acer laptop.
I have windows 8 and my computer automatically starts on the desktop I never even use the start screen. I like that if you right click the start button it brings up the old start menu.
Hello guys i ve got a question,i am a music producer,i think to change from windows 7 black edition to windows 8.1. do you know if they have any midi ports open and K-Lite guides installed??
It is people like you that are put on this earth to give everyone else a good laugh... Just because it is a touchscreen compatible os doesn't mean you have to have a touch screen. There are literally settings that will change your whole set up to be geared toward non touchscreen use... Stop bitching and actually learn something about a computer. They aren't forcing anything on you, they wanted to make windows 8 to work well with touch screen, touch screen was going to happen anyways... Its an option, not a requirement
For all of you people constantly complaining about the new start page: DOWNLOAD CLASSIC SHELL!!! Classic Shell brings back the classic start menu, and has been around since like a month after windows 8 was released! STOP BITCHING.
I'm one of the few people who's actually a fan of Windows 8, the only complaints I have are the silly drag and drop features which are clearly optimized for touch screens and not a mouse. My second complaint is the ugly design of flat tiles, I've never liked them: 3D bubbles and icons are much more aesthetically pleasing.
people will always hate change... they criticized when vista came out, but then bitched about windows 7 until it became recognized by the majority. Humans live in a system where "majority rules, therefore it must be true" . Talk about being brainwashed. I have owned both Macs (all iOS versions) and windows (all versions starting from windows 98) and quite frankly I find that each OS offers something different for the consumer.
Thanks a million for making this. Just got a new Windows 8.1-installed laptop to replace my 20-year old Win XP desktop; haven't felt THAT lost since the last time I used a Mac!
I was so confused when i first started Windows 8. Thanks for the video.
Lol at all the hate in the comments. some of you should realize this is supposed to be a simple tutorial not a review or anything else right? While I've been using windows 8 now for months I've found this helpful in showing a friend in how to learn it

I like windows 8 more than 10
What
this is most easy,simple and cool tutorial i got on youtube..
Don't know why people saying not clear!!

I just don't understand peoples hatred for windows 8.1
I think it's just laziness.
8.1 is a fantastic OS, it has everything 7 has and more.
Lol pretty much
I have a touchscreen laptop and I love using Windows 8.1 on it! Some people really are too lazy
Everything but a start menu. Add that and ill be happy.
YellawayHD i dont really miss a start menu to be honest. you now have that start screen with the tiles where you can add or delete all the program shortcuts you want. (and even make it look nice :P ) and if you need a program thats not in that screen you just type it in. no need to click a search icon or whatever, just type it and the program will be found. i love it.
Gortpap
Type it in where? I do not like Windows 8. It sucks.

Don't know why people are moaning about windows 8, I like it
Thanks Jag. I bought a laptop with Windows 8.1 as a XMAS present so these 2 videos will be a great tutorial tool.
Damn when I bought my new computer I wanted to just use it, This the Biggest piece of crap fever from windows, So frustrating I have to waste my time watching tutorials. Thanks Jag for this tutorial.
Thank you very much Mr jag This help
Thanks JAGTutorials for making these videos so easy to follow and understand.
GLAD MY FRIEND TOLD ME ABOUT THIS. VERY HELPFUL FOR A BEGINNER
Very helpful. I'm not as worried getting this now
I use Windows 8.1 and I loved using it (Except for every MSN apps that Microsoft keeps discontinuing it and let you to open it Microsoft Edge which is on Windows 10.)
Can't wait to buy a new windows 8 laptop! Windows 8.1 looks absolutely amazing! :D
thanks for the video, I am extremely illiterate when it comes to computers, but your video help me to understand some issues about windows 8.
I'm a Mac user but needed to get a windows based notebook for work. The last time I used windows was Win7. Thanks for the video and how to download the Win 7 start button.
And this is why I installed the Windows Classic Shell and start Windows up in the Classic Desktop. :)
I've yet to change to Windows 8 but it doesn't look any stupider than any of the previous versions of Windows. I had some affection for Windows 98 but that was sixteen years ago. I suspect I'll get used to this one, too.
True, people were afraid of fire once...
Thank you for the tutorial
I had windows 8 until windows 10 and for some reason I don't remember much about it haha, except that the whole design worked and looked much better on a tablet.
Thanks, good tutorial, helped me to move forward. To migrate to 8.1 we just need to forget & leave everything behind. It's not that hard, but needs a re-thinking and a fresh open mind,

Still using this Windows in 2022 because it very much easy then 10 and also it's currently giving securesecurity updates...😍😍😍🥰😘😘🥰😍🥰🥰😘😋😎😎😎😎

Well done. Appreciate the to-the-point and clear presentation.
I don't know why everyone hates windows 8 I don't find it confusing I find it really cool ! And easy to use not boosting or anything
Anyone that prefers windows 7 or any of the previous OS' has no business interacting with technology. 8.1 is brilliant
the new windows 8 and 8.1 is so much better than windows 7. Win 7 was so out dated in my opinion. Don't know why everyone is pissed off. I guess cause it's so different, it's harder to use at the start and probably needs some sort of tutorial when first learning how to use it (Can't remember if it had one)
First Time Using Windows 8 And The Updated Version Of The Video. Thanks :)
Don't you just love it when your screen turns green? ... im so happy..
Hey thanks JAGTutorials. I just got a new Qosmio with Windows 8.1. This tutorial is excellent. The narrator is a little monotone, but otherwise, great presentation and easy to follow.

I with pounce on it I is a panther
You clearly are not a performance person
Windows 8 was a bad idea for a desktop os. This is cool for a touch screen interface but not when your using a mouse/track pad
Thank you and it is very useful for the new users.
helpful tutorial and a very inviting voice!
Excellent! Very well organized and clear.
How about just giving us the classic regular windows menu rather than wasting everyone's time having to learn to use a new, less efficient menu.
Because some people can learn a new system and move on with life?
crazypete8888
Some people find it pointless learning a new system when they were happy with the old and found nothing wrong with it.
Rods toy box duh than keep the old one, lol. Or go back to a typewriter. Why watch this video if you don't care to learn to learn the simple changes of a new system.

This vid actually reduced my hate towards windows 8...

In fact 90% of laptops which comes with windows 8.1 what I have seen contain touch screen.
Also it's not difficult to use metro interface with simple keyboard and mouse, it just looks like you can't use it without touch screen.
Also you can just attach your lap top to touch screen if you want or use remote.
Windows 7 is just easier to use, but it's not as fast and light as windows 8.1
If you want games and cheap PC then use Windows and don't complain about it based on how it looks or how you feel.

I agree.
randall paul Welcome to the effects of drugs on the brain. I could help you with your questions but the instructions would be over 1000 pages long.
I played with this. I had it for a month and sold by 8 ridden pc on ebay, a $121 lost. Windows 8 is for pc tablets, not for desk tops. Its too bad they discontinued XP support. 7 is the most reliable after XP. I give Windows 8 a C+ on a desktop, but an A on a pc tablet!
Thank you, very helpful and straight forward :D
Thank you for this video 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😻😻😻😻💟
Very helpful. Thank you.
good overview, thank you!
Very good tutorial.. it helps a lot.. thank you
Very helpful! Thank you. :)
did they update start screen so you cant put 2 medium and 1 wide all beside each other without creating a space and new column? It does't let me and puts in a new group.
Thanks, helped me a lot!
thank you, great presentation.
thank you so much for giving a good guidelines
Im looking for this because my Windows 8 update to 8.1 by itself!
So I'm on my youtube app and there is this huge ass bar at the bottom of my screen that shows my tabs, address bar, refresh button ect, is there any way to hide it?
This seems like it'll take a little learning, but I think some people in the comments are a way too angry about this. I'd rather learn a new OS for 400 than pay 1000 for an apple.
Thanks. Great Help.
Hi, all my tiles on the start screen are gone and I've tried everything but i cant seem to restore it. Can you perhaps make a video on how to fix that? its windows 8.1 Acer laptop.
And desktop is a tile on the start screen too. If those were all gone then how are you typing this?
@@theamazing7198 probably on his phone.
Was helpful. Thank u :)
That was helpful, thank you!
Great work !! :)
I miss windows 8 & 8.1 😢
I LOVE
I don't understand the instruction "Right clicking and selecting All Apps on the toolbar" at 5:39? I don't know what he means by this.
It just gives u options of what u wanna do with the app or where u wanna put it.
What a robot. Sounds like one of those documentary narrators from the 60's.
thanks for helping me out :)
I love windows 8.1
Not all bad.. I just realized how much I love Vista. No offense but is that Robbie the Robot speaking or has Siri found herself a little hoarse?
Thanks very very helpfulll...
How do you copy and paste and is there a right key on the key pad?
I have windows 8 and my computer automatically starts on the desktop I never even use the start screen. I like that if you right click the start button it brings up the old start menu.
Great where is the start button? I go down there and NOTHING happens.
Hello guys i ve got a question,i am a music producer,i think to change from windows 7 black edition to windows 8.1. do you know if they have any midi ports open and K-Lite guides installed??
i like windows 8.1 so iam going to upgrade it
I don't mind it but half of the things stated in this vid do not appear in my version eg no red square with a hand at top of screen
So far, 2 minutes in, I have about 20 questions, most of them starting with "why?"...
Can i use this on laptop IBM thinkpad t-42?
Thank you
fuck me can i please get the PC version of windows 8? MY PC ISNT AN IPHONE WTF MICROSOFT HOW COULD YOU FORCE THIS TOUCH SCREEN BULLSHIT ON EVERYONE??
Touch screen is epic
It is people like you that are put on this earth to give everyone else a good laugh... Just because it is a touchscreen compatible os doesn't mean you have to have a touch screen. There are literally settings that will change your whole set up to be geared toward non touchscreen use... Stop bitching and actually learn something about a computer. They aren't forcing anything on you, they wanted to make windows 8 to work well with touch screen, touch screen was going to happen anyways... Its an option, not a requirement
eddie steele yeah
Hi, how do you access hyperterminal in windows 8.1?? In XP we jus using Start>>all programs>>communication>>hyperterminal
This version of windows was good for touch screens
really its only handy for touchscreens
Please help!!! I Cant open any programs like chrome, cmd, it shows that its open but It is not showing on my desktop! Please!!!
For all of you people constantly complaining about the new start page: DOWNLOAD CLASSIC SHELL!!!
Classic Shell brings back the classic start menu, and has been around since like a month after windows 8 was released!
STOP BITCHING.
I'm one of the few people who's actually a fan of Windows 8, the only complaints I have are the silly drag and drop features which are clearly optimized for touch screens and not a mouse. My second complaint is the ugly design of flat tiles, I've never liked them: 3D bubbles and icons are much more aesthetically pleasing.
people will always hate change... they criticized when vista came out, but then bitched about windows 7 until it became recognized by the majority. Humans live in a system where "majority rules, therefore it must be true" . Talk about being brainwashed. I have owned both Macs (all iOS versions) and windows (all versions starting from windows 98) and quite frankly I find that each OS offers something different for the consumer.
That's Right. Microsoft Is Trying To Change My Computer Into A Stupid Ass Tablet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No Mac has ever had iOS?
on windows 8.1 can you download stuff for windows 8 only
