Microsoft released the first major update for Windows 10 update on Thursday. Most of the improvements are quite noticeable by the users. However, there still some feature that many users may still be unaware of.

The Verge reported that Microsoft has added the "Find my device" on Windows 10. The feature, when turned on, will help you locate a computer if it is lost or stolen. Just go to your Microsoft Account and update your security settings.

Users upgrading their Windows 10 will also get a better version of Cortana which can now features missed call alerts. Cortana can also answer calls via text messages. However, this new feature is not yet ready as a messaging app which is why users have to use Cortana to send the text message. Stylus equipped devices can also use Cortana for remembering events.

Automatic timezones are fairly standard in many computer devices. But people have to manually set the time zone when traveling abroad with your laptop or smartphone. The new automatic timezone feature in Windows 10 upgrade will update itself to the country or place where it is located.

Another less known but cool feature is the "cast media to device". This function basically lets a user transmit files weather they are pictures, audio or video to other devices without the need of setting up an account.

The upgraded Windows 10 now features a new Microsoft Edge that can sync a user's passwords and favorite items to other devices.

The latest Windows 10 update also includes a lightweight Skype which users can use to communicate with their friends if they also happen to use Skype messaging or video services

The upgraded Windows 10 is also bringing back the "Metro" style of snapping apps. If a user is having difficulty placing certain apps on the table, the latest upgrade may mean that two apps can now be placed side by side on the screen. Users can re-size one app and the other will adjust accordingly. A user will immediately notice a sidebar appearing in the middle of the apps.
