The charms: Search, Share, Start, Devices, and Settings
No matter where you are, the charms help you do the things you do most oftenlike search, share links and
photos, print, and change settings. The charms are context sensitive, meaning that what you can do depends on
where you are. For example, if you open the Settings charm from the Start screen, you’ll see settings related to the
Start screen. And if you open the Settings charm from an app, you’ll see settings for that app.
The five charmsSearch, Share, Start, Devices, and Settingsare always available on the right side of your screen.
