Searching for files/folders using a question mark( )

                 Question mark replaces a single character or symbol. It represents only one character, so it
                 searches for only one character. For example, when we type "C?M" in the search box of the File
                 Explorer, it will display only files or folders with names that have three characters, where the first
                 and third characters are C and M. The question mark can also be used as a wildcard more than
                 once, depending on the name of the file you are searching for.

                     USING MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS

                 When we work on a computer, we might need to work on more than one file at a time or open
                 more than one application at a time. For example, while working on a Word file, we would be
                 using Google for searching notes and PowerPoint for making the presentation. If we need some
                 images for the presentation, we would have the image folder open in File Explorer as well.
                 So, we could have one or all of the windows open for ourselves.

                    A web browser like Google Chrome with different web pages for research
                    PowerPoint for presentation
                    File Explorer

                    Word for writing notes
                 Windows allows us to work with                       Tech Funda
                 multiple applications, as we have learnt
                 just now. In fact, we could be listening
                                                                    Use Alt + Tab keys to switch between the
                 to some music while doing all this work.
                 As  we  know,  all  these  applications            open windows.
                 would be open in separate windows. If
                 we want, we can display two or more
                 application  windows  side  by  side  for  easier  work.  In  fact,  Windows  provides  us  with  many
                 options for displaying the application windows when we are working with multiple applications.
