Many behind-the-scenes improvements have been made to Windows Millennium Edition. Now computing is faster, more fun, and more trouble-free than ever before
-You can choose to have your computer automatically receive updates from the Microsoft Web site
-It's easier to find what you want in Windows Me: Control Panel and other folders now have a friendly new look to make it easier to find the settings you most often use. And the Start menu is ''smart'' and presents your most-used choices where you can easily find them
-You can perform simple operations on your pictures, such as rotating and printing, without the need for other software
-Windows Me protects important system files in a new way and keeps your computer running efficiently by using System File Protection. Because many products make use of the same system files, sometimes when you install a product it tries to replace one of those files with its own version that might lack the capabilities that other programs rely on. System File Protection works in the background to make sure such things don't happen. And this ensures that your copy of Windows Me—and your favorite programs—operate smoothly and quickly.
The best feature of the millennium edition is the system restoreSometimes the unexpected happens. You install a product or program— perhaps from a CD or the Internet—and suddenly your once reliable computer starts acting up. Sometimes even when you uninstall the program, your problems continue.Now you can return your computer to a state you specify, prior to when your problem started. Just use System Restore. You don't lose your work, such as e-mail messages or any changes you've made to existing documents. You just get your computer's great performance back, and you avoid the frustration of having to go through a lengthy computer support call
