With a left-click in the right place you can get to an easy access menu of some of the most common Windows 8 commands and features.

I have been using Microsoft Windows 8 Consumer Preview since it was released and I find I am not near as annoyed as many readers of this blog seem to be. However, I was frustrated by the lack of an easy way to get to what I consider basic system commands and functions. Doing every little thing, like changing the Power Options, through a search or by calling up the Control Panel just didn’t make sense. I thought for sure there must be a better way.
