Search Search for anything. Search the app you're in, another app, or search Surface for an app,
setting, or file. For more info, see the How to search section below.

the last app you were using.
Devices Use devices that are connected to your Surface, both wired and wireless. You can print
from an app or stream your latest home movie to your TV.
Settings Change settings for apps and your Surface. Open Settings from anywhere and you’ll
see PC settings such as network connection, volume, brightness, notifications, power, and
keyboard. Open Settings from an app and you’ll see settings for the app.
How to search
You can use search to find apps, settings, and files on your PC. If you are on the Start screen, you can just start
typing. Here’s how:
1. Go to the Start screen and type what you want to find.
2. Tap or click Apps, Settings, or Files depending on what you’re looking for.
You can also find something in an app by using the Search charm. For example, you can use the Search charm to
find an app in the Store or a song in the Music app.
