Pressing 'F1' in W8 Metro does nothing. So much for all the keystrokes working; what I consider one of the most fundamental is gone. I can't read the manual if MS has taken away their most preached method of opening it. Danged if I could find a 'Help' charm, tile, menu option, or other shortcut, but maybe I missed it in the 'All Apps' quagmire.

Searching for 'help' yields results (assuming someone told you how to do that) but they open in ... Classic desktop, where incidentally the F1 does work.
