Installing optional applications
There is more software available to you in the SHC Application Store. The shortcut for the SHC Application Store is on the desktop as well as in the Start Menu.
If an application in the store has a grey X in the top right of the icon, this means that it is not installed, you can double click on the app and the installation will begin and a status window will open showing the progress.
