A Windows 10 Start Menu Secret
Did you know you can lock your computer, change your account settings, switch user accounts, and sign out of your computer by right-clicking on your account picture or account icon on the Windows 10 Start menu?
Open the Start menu and look on the left edge. You’ll see your user account picture or icon and icons for Documents, Pictures, File Explorer, Settings, etc.
Just right-click on your user account picture or icon and a menu will appear (see the screenshot below). From that menu, you’ll be able to change your account settings, lock, and sign out of your computer, as well as switch user accounts.
How useful this tip is, is up to you, but at least now you know that menu exists.
And while we’re on this subject – the fastest way to lock your computer is to use the Windows key + L shortcut.
