Windows 10 Anniversary update has been released with a few new features and options. The anniversary update ISO is available to download for free for all Windows 10 users. Now, users can change the Edge browser Downloads folder via its Settings, and installation of Extensions are also possible. Once you have upgraded to Windows 10 with Anniversary Update, you can delete the ‘Windows.old’ folder through the Settings app.

One of the noticeable changes in this Anniversary Update is the ability to customize the center of the quick action in Windows 10. If you open the action center, you will see some quick toggles for Bluetooth, tablet mode, network, quiet hours, note, brightness, battery saver, etc. This Action Center is quite similar to what we use on smartphones.

Once you have upgraded the PC with Anniversary Update, you can customize the quick toggles in Windows 10 and re-arrange and remove toggles.
