Thanks to PhantomOcean3 for discovering this, follow them for more hidden features!

Download ViveTool from Github

You will need to download ViveTool, which is a small app that will help us enable hidden features from Windows.

After you download ViveTool, you will need to extract the contents of the archive into the System32 location so that we can have full administrative privileges to the operating system.

Right-click on the archive and then click on Extract all. Select the System32 location and then click on Extract. You will also need to provide some administrative privileges.

After you’ve done that, you will need to open CMD as administrator and then copy and paste the following commands:

Enable New Desktop Switching Animation and Labels:

vivetool /enable /id:34508225
vivetool /enable /id:42354458 

Enable New Settings Recovery Section:

vivetool /enable /id:39847173

You will now need to restart your computer, for the changes to take effect.
