Windows 8.1 Update 1 leak: More changes for Start screen, desktop

Following weeks of speculation and rumors, a purported early build of Update 1 for Windows 8.1 has leaked online and is available on a number of file sharing sites. The download reveals a lot of the features we’ve been hearing about since Update 1 screenshots started appearing. The update itself is expected in March or April.
Before diving into the details, the usual caveats apply: Microsoft could cancel any of these features or hold them for a later update. So what we’re seeing here is more of a work in progress than a finished feature set for the next Windows update.
That said, most of these changes are expected to survive the final cut and make it into Update 1.
The biggest changes with Update 1 involves improving the modern UI experience for traditional, point-click-and-type PC users.
