Some of this functionality is reintroduced with the Windows 8.1 Update via the PC Settings app.
The "Manage wireless networks" option on the task pane of the Network and Sharing Center control panel is no longer available, although some of its functionality is still available through the netsh command netsh wlan. Although dial-up networking using PSTN telephone line is becoming increasingly rare, this could affect users that still use it to connect to 2G, 3G and/or 3.5G mobile networks and also DSL subscribers that use the system's PPPoE dialer. For dial-up networking, some of the options under "Redialing options", such as "Redial attempts" and "Redial if line is dropped", are no longer available. The feature itself and its command line shortcut ( shell:games) remain. Shortcuts to the Games Explorer were removed. Updated versions of Mahjong, Minesweeper, FreeCell, Solitaire and Spider Solitaire are available in Windows Store. Chess Titans, Mahjong Titans, Purble Place, Minesweeper, FreeCell, Solitaire and Spider Solitaire were removed. Windows 8.1 no longer shows Libraries by default. The Briefcase option under New context menu is removed by default, but can be reinstated by editing the registry. However, if Windows 8 is directly upgraded from Windows 7 instead of a clean install, the sound schemes that are included in Windows 7 will be preserved as well as the files relating to the sound schemes. The sound schemes that were first included with Windows 7: Afternoon, Calligraphy, Characters, Cityscape, Delta, Festival, Garden, Heritage, Landscape, Quirky, Raga, Savanna and Sonata are all no longer available only the folders remain in C:\Windows\Media, and they are empty.

"Advanced appearance settings.", once found in Personalization > Window Color and Appearance part of Control Panel is removed. High-contrast themes (which previously used the Classic appearance) are modified to use the new visual styles. ⊞ Win+ Tab ↹ now toggles between Windows Store apps and the desktop. Aside from the taskbar, the new theme uses fewer transparency effects than the previous Glass theme. This is intended to prevent skeuomorphism. The Aero Glass theme is replaced by a new theme with a flatter visual appearance in line with Metro design language. Windows 2000, NT 4.0, Server 20 compatibility modes were removed. Windows Desktop Gadgets, first introduced in Windows Vista, are removed because of security vulnerabilities.

The default category is Apps, but can be changed before or after performing a search. It can search " Apps", " Settings", " Files" or within an app-specific index (such as, for example, e-mails from the Mail app) but not all at once. A category-specific search replaces the former.

Replacement methods for invoking Start screen include a hotspot in the lower left corner of the screen, where the Start screen tile pops up, and a Start button among " the charms". Start button was removed from the taskbar (although it was re-added in Windows 8.1).
