The left-hand column displays small icons to identify the currently signed-in user and access File Explorer, system settings, and power controls. A description of each small icon can be seen by hovering the mouse over the icon. If desired, this column can be expanded by clicking the menu icon at the top of the column. The middle column lists a series of links, with the user’s most used applications at the top, and a sorted list of installed applications below that. The right-hand column includes application live tiles that display up-to-date information from applications and allow the user to fully launch those applications. The application live tile feature was made popular by Windows 8; however, Windows 8 did not offer the blended experience of a Start menu together with application live tiles. Windows 10 offers the best of both worlds in its Start menu. Jump lists are reintroduced with Windows 10 to identify what content was recently opened by an application, or what content is automatically linked to the menu item. The left-hand column of the Start menu displays an arrow next to the Start menu item if the item has a jump list associated with it. Clicking the arrow will open the jump list for that item. If a user clicks an item on the jump list, the content or listed application is opened. If nothing is selected and the user clicks elsewhere, the jump list disappears

Workgroup Model

When a computer is first connected to a network, it typically is configured as a member of a workgroup. A workgroup is a loosely knit collection of peer computers on a network where no computer has control or superior role to any other computer. The peers share resources with each other over the network. This can be useful for a small number of computers in a typical home or small business network.

Domain Model

The domain model is a client/server strategy that allows central administrative management of its members. A domain is a collection of computers and users that are identified by a common security database. The database is stored on one or more dedicated servers called domain controllers (DCs).

If the first octet is zero, the remaining octets identify local machines on the same network as the computer sending data. The special IPv4 address 0.0.0.0 is used in routing logic to represent "all other computers."
• A first octet value of 127 identifies a destination that is local to the computer sending data. The address in this range that is commonly seen is 127.0.0.1, or the loopback address. Data sent to the loopback address returns to the computer that sent it and does not appear on the actual network.
• A first octet identifying a Class D address represents a multicast address. Computers that belong to the same multicast group have the same multicast address assigned to them. Data sent to that multicast address attempts to deliver copies of the data to all multicast members with the same address. Class D addresses are not used to identify a single host computer with a unique IPv4 address.
• A first octet identifying a Class E address is reserved for future use and special purposes. Class E addresses are not used to identify a single host computer with a unique IPv
address. The special IPv4 address 255.255.255.255 is used as a broadcast address that rep- resents the destination "all computers in this network."

What are some of the potential downsides to using Client Hyper-V?

• Session-based virtual desktops—This type of virtual desktop is hosted on a Remote Desktop Session Host (RD Session Host). A single RD Session Host is shared by multiple users at one time. When the users connect, they each get their own independent desktop and run their own applications. However, the core operating system services are shared, which allows many users to share the same server.
• Virtual machine-based virtual desktops—This type of virtual desktop is hosted on a Windows server running Hyper-V. Each user has an independent virtual machine with a completely independent operating system. The hardware of the server is shared among the virtual machines, but each virtual machine is independent. This type of virtual desktop has lower density than session-based virtual desktops

Performance tuning lets you optimize the performance of Windows 10 to function at acceptable standards.

What is performance tuning?

• Verify that no unusual activity is happening on the workstation. For example, ensure that no applications are performing large queries to databases or processing batch jobs, unless that is the normal state of the computer.
• Measure performance indicators over time. By measuring performance indicators over time, you can see an average value for the indicators. Average values are less volatile and more accurate than measuring with snapshots of short duration

What should you do to ensure that you are measuring the normal state when establishing a baseline?

The most common bottlenecks to system performance are in the areas of disk, memory, processor, or the network.

What are the most common bottlenecks to system performance?

• Upgrade the disks
• Implement mirrored Storage Spaces
• Move the paging file to a nonsystem disk

How can you increase disk performance to avoid disk bottlenecks?

• Increase the amount of physical memory
• Run fewer applications at once

What can you do to reduce the use of virtual memory?

• Change to a faster processor
• Add additional processors
• Change to a multicore processor

How can you resolve a processor bottleneck?

1. Create a baseline for the computer.

2. Compare the baseline with current performance indicators.

3. Identify possible causes for variations from the baseline.

4. Identify possible fixes for variations from the baseline.

5. Select a fix to implement.

6. Implement the fix and monitor for changes.

7. If the problem is not resolved, undo the fix and repeat Step 5.
8. If the problem is resolved, document the solution for future reference

What are the steps to tune performance?

• Log an entry in the application
• Start a Data Collector
• Run a scheduled task

What actions can be performed once an alert has been triggered?

• Install image—These are WIM images that include the operating system and may include applications that are deployed to workstations. You can use an unattend.xml file to modify the operating system as part of the deployment process.
• Boot image—These are WIM images that include Windows PE. They are used to deploy install images. The default boot image (boot.wim) displays a menu that allows you to select which install image to deploy.
• Capture image—These images are used to automate the collection of a deployment image from a computer that has been configured as a reference image. Sysprep is run on the com- puter before the image is captured. The capture image uses Windows PE as an operating system and runs imaging software to collect the image.
• Discover image—These images are used to deploy the deployment images on computers that do not support PXE. Discover images are ISO files that can be stored on removable media, such as DVD or USB drive. At the client, you can boot from removable media to connect to the WDS server and download images
