What You Should Know about Windows 7

Windows remains the most commonly used operating system in the world and countless manufacturers install this company’s software into their laptops, desktops, and other devices. Windows 7 is the most recent incarnation of this OS, and all those that will be using a computer that currently has Windows 7 should understand a few basic features of this system.

One of the primary criticisms for Windows for many years has been the lack of an efficient troubleshooting option for the average user. While troubleshooters have been a common addition on almost all Windows systems, they were often seen as ineffective. Windows updated this program with an Action Center and a comprehensive troubleshooter that can record any problems that the computer may be experiencing, offer helpful solutions, suggest updated patches, and automatically make reports if the user would like.

The overall ergonomics of Windows have changed with 7 as well. Users can simply drag various windows into the top, bottom, or sides of the screen to perfectly use up any existing space on the screen. There will also be an increased number of keyboard shortcuts and the taskbar has gotten a complete overhaul.

Duplicating data has also become much easier for those that would like to produce ISO files. Instead of requiring third-party programs, users can create and burn these files onto double layer DVDs, mini CDs, or any other number of digital audio CD R options with just a single click of the mouse.

Those that have recently purchased a computer with the Windows 7 OS should take the full tour to understand all of the included features.
