    Hi...

    If the taskbar (At the bottom) looks the same as when you are on desktop then you are in classic...

    The desktop background colour scheme is also visible..

    If the taskbar is replaced with a Black bar and apps you are in metro.

    The desktop background colour scheme is also not visible.

    PS...

    If you need to switch or have problems doing so , please use comments/Add info and state what internet browser you use.
