Group apps IN WIDOWS 8

The Start screen apps are initially displayed in a fairly random order, but if

you'd prefer a more organised life then it's easy to sort them into custom groups.
 
You might drag People, Mail, Messaging and Calendar over to the left-hand side,

for instance, to form a separate 'People' group. Click the 'minus' icon in the

bottom right corner of the screen to zoom out and you'll now find you can drag

and drop the new group (or any of the others) around as a block.


Right-click within the block (while still zoomed out) and you'll also be able to

give the group a name, which - if you go on to add another 20 or 30 apps to your

Start screen - will make it much easier to find the tools you need.
