    Navigate to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\ in Regedit

    change EnableLUA from 1 to 0, Restart.

    Hi,

    I have no problem on WDP x64 bit, but my WDP x32 bit window explorer keep shutting down and restart all the time. Tell me how to fix it. I even tried to fix it with msconfig, but got no luck. Thanks

    I'm pretty sure it's enabled, you need 1366 X 768 res at least for snap

    What graphics card are you using? Sometimes you can find a diff video driver

    Yeah when I click in Immersive Apps I get a blinking type cursor that you'd get when waiting to enter text... Likely a bug.

    Well, it works absolutely fine using the BootCamp method, just not when I've installed it via UEFI.

    I have no idea, to be honest.

    Maybe there'll be a reg-hack to enable that for lower-res screens?

    Unfortunately Windows 8 disables Snap for non-widescreen desktops :( I have 1280x1024 and I would love to try out Snap :(

    It's not that interesting, you can only 'snap', Immersive apps. It's pretty useless since there aren't many useful apps.
