#GMAIL APP FOR WINDOWS 10 LIVE TILES WINDOWS 8.1#
As you know starting Windows 8.1 the Mail app does a 50-50 split to make room for Internet Explorer 11 to open an email link.

One functionality that I’m really happy to see is how the new version Mail can automatically adapt and resize to full screen when opening a link from an email. In the first version of Windows 8, the “app commands” bar was hidden and hard to find, you either have to swipe from the bottom or right-click on an empty space to make options visible, which didn’t make much sense to many users. This is a new way that Microsoft is trying to help users discover more commands they can use in the app. Mail for Windows 8.1 also brings a new UI change that you’ll start seeing in many apps, that is the “More” button represented by a very slim bar with three dots (…) at the bottom. ( Not to get confused here, the star you see under Inbox is only a list for your favorite contacts, it is totally separate from staring a folder.) If you want to have quick access to specific folders, you have to pin them by tapping or clicking the star icon. One thing you’ll see is that the old folder structure is gone, in the new version of Mail “All Folders” is located at the bottom when clicking the folder icon. But if you’re using, let say, Gmail, you will only be able to access to Inbox and All Folders.

Now if you configured an account, you’ll have access to additional sections like Favorites (star), Flag, and Newsletter and Social updates, which are new filtering features to decluttler your inbox from email newsletters you might have subscribed and social notifications such as Facebook, Twitter, and other networks. It’s slimmer, compact, has new icons, and features a fly out menu for each section. The account column (the first one on left) is where you will see the most changes. In the new version of the app, Microsoft still delivering emails on a three-column view (account, message, and reading). No doubt that Mail is getting better, you’ll first notice after installing the new version of the operating system and looking at the new improved user interface (UI) that many will agree it’s a lot easier to use. There are many changes to this version of the app so let’s get started: New streamlined design Anyway, both should be useful if you find no use in the Live Tile feature of Windows 10.In Windows 8.1 is when the Mail app finally gets interesting with its new streamlined design, automatic filtering for Newsletters and Social updates, new features like Sweep, simplified view for All Folders, multiple windows, drag & drop support, email styling, and a few others. The policy seems to take effect immediately, while the Registry key does not even after a restart. Please note that items may still be cached even though push notifications are disabled. Double-click the item afterwards and set its value to 1.Right-click on PushNotifications and select New > Dword (32-bit) Value.Navigate to the following location: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\PushNotifications.Tap on the Windows-key, type regedit.exe and tap on enter.You can set the preference in the Windows Registry as well. While you are at it, you may want to consider disabling other notification options such as toast notifications or notification mirroring there as well.

The effect? "If you enable this policy setting, applications and system features will not be able to update their tiles and tile badges in the Start screen.".Double-click the entry, and set it to enabled on the screen that opens.

There you find listed on the right Turn off tile notifications.Use the hierarchy on the left to navigate to the following policy group: Local Computer Policy > User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Star Menu and Taskbar > Notifications.The Local Group Policy Editor should be open now. Watch all the Live Tiles in their glory, if you have not turned them off yet manually. Tap on the Windows-key and wait for the Start Menu to open.For those with Group Policy, the process looks like this:
