Windows user interface

The following illustrations show a Windows desktop, the desktop access points, an open window, a browser window, and a webpage, with the various elements that appear on them called out.

Elements that appear in more than one illustration are not necessarily called out on each illustration. For example, the scroll bar and the Close button appear in all windows, so they are only called out in the illustration of an open window.

For the names of dialog box elements, see Dialog boxes. For the names of items on a ribbon, menu, or toolbar, see those topics. For more information, also see User interface formatting, and the names of individual items.
