ShowWindowsLive (Standard 8 Module Reference)

7/8/2014

Review the applicable Embedded Core modules and any examples for the ShowWindowsLive setting in Windows Embedded 8 Standard (Standard 8).

This setting specifies whether the Get Windows Live Essentials link is displayed in the Start menu, in Getting Started.

Set to true to display it; otherwise, set to false. The default value is true

If you do provide Windows Live functionality, we strongly recommend that you leave the Get Windows Live Essentials link in place. Access to Windows Live Essentials ensures that users can easily discover and acquire the Windows Live versions of popular applications.

Modules
