Windows 8.1 Build Addresses First-Time User Complaints

According to this report, Microsoft is finally including features like tutorials, parallax scrolling start screen backgrounds, an updated mail app and more to Windows 8.1.

The changes are clearly designed to improve the discoverability of features in Windows 8.1. Alongside the context menu changes, Microsoft also displays tips within the built-in apps that direct users to swipe and access the Charms. None of these changes were present in the Preview version of Windows 8.1, and Microsoft has also created a Help + Tips app that includes a variety of video tutorials for navigating the OS, accessing files, basic actions, and settings.
