Start screen changes when a shortcut is placed on your Windows
Start screen. If you touch the tile, you can open its corresponding

Sleep mode
‑ A power management mode that shuts down all

V
V
‑ volt — The measurement of electric potential or electromotive
force. 1 volt appears across a resistance of 1 ohm when a current of 1
ampere flows through that resistance.
VAC
‑ voltage in alternating current — A mathematics of AC voltages,
as alternating currents are caused by alternating voltages.
VDC
‑ voltage in direct current — A measurement in a DC system. The
current flows directly, in one direction in the circuit, and flows at a
specific, constant voltage.
W
W
‑ watt — The measurement of electrical power. 1 watt is 1 ampere
of current flowing at 1 volt.
Wallpaper
‑ The background pattern or picture on the Windows
desktop.
Wi-Fi
‑ A technology as a synonym for WLAN (wireless local area
network) connects to the internet when within range of a wireless
network.
