Windows 7 Review
What if a new version of Windows did not try to dazzle? And if, on the contrary, he
tried to disappear, unless you need it? Such an operating system for the distribution of
attractive effects to low, new and useful features. Instead of throwing alerts and
notices and applications, trying to stay away from your face. And if an application
package is not needed, it is a dump em.

It is not if scenarios. Windows 7, scheduled to arrive on new PCs and as an upgrade

shrink wrapped, October 22, you can feel the minimum and try to repair the old and
new problems. However, Windows Vista offers a striking new interface, but made a
poor performance, compatibility pitfalls, and lack of charm, has some people lament
the development and others refuse to leave Windows XP.

Windows 7 is almost flawless. Some features feel unfinished. Others do not realize
their potential without heavy lifting by third parties. And some annoyances remain
intact for a long time. But in general, it seems that the last expedition of the trial
version led to be a worthy successor to Windows XP, Windows Vista never was.

The launch of Microsoft Windows 7 also roughly coincides with the launch of the new
company Apple Snow Leopard. The visual comparison of the two operating systems,
see our slideshow "Snow Leopard vs. Windows 7. Presentation" Of course, the
operating system cannot be a winner if it turns a PC into a zombie curvaceous or cause
installation nightmares. See "Windows 7 performance tests" results Windows 7
performance tests and "Upgrading to Windows 7" for advice on practical training on
how best to install it. Read here for an in-depth looks how Microsoft has changed the
particular operating system for the best - in Windows 7.

Interface: The new foreman

It mainly produces the Windows experience in the taskbar particularly in the menu
system tray and start. Vista gave the start to redraw the welcome list. In Windows 7,
the Taskbar and the System Tray get a complete makeover.

Windows 7 improves the taskbar offers many new features and offers users more
control over the way it looks.
The new Taskbar replaces the small icons and text labels old to run applications with
icons without biggest name. If you can keep the icons straight, the new design reduces
pain and chaos of the taskbar. If you do not want to, you can reduce the size of icons
and / or bring the labels back.
In the past, you could get one click access to programs by dragging the icons in the
Quick Launch bar. Windows 7 eliminates Quick Launch and folds its capacity in the
taskbar. The withdrawal of the application icon in the Start menu or desktop to the
Taskbar, and Windows pin there, so you can run the program without digging through
the Start menu. You can also arrange the icons on the task they moved to the new
address bar.

It is stated that a particular application in the taskbar running tasks, Windows run box
hidden around its icon - so subtle, in fact, to see if the application is running and can
take some time, especially if you sit on the icon between two symbols for running
applications.

In Windows Vista, hovering your mouse over the taskbar icon for the application
produces a thumbnail window screen known as the preview. But when you have
multiple windows open, you see only a snapshot at a time. Windows 7 version of this
feature is smoother and more efficient: Move the cursor on the icon, and thumbnails of
winsloader

application windows glide into position above the Taskbar, so that you can quickly find
the one you looking. (The process would be much simpler if the thumbnails are larger
and easier to understand.)

Also new to the taskbar in Windows 7 is a feature called Jump Lists for. These lists are
similar to those which are sensitive to the context that you get when you click on the
various Windows applications, but should not be used in the application. Internet
Explorer 8 in the Jump List program, for example, you can open the browser and load a
new tab, start browsing session concealment, or go directly to any of eight frequently
visited Web pages. Applications can offer Jump Lists are not Microsoft, too, if
developers follow the guidelines to create them.

Windows 7 interface changes and other minor, but reasonably so you may wonder why
Windows did not include them from the start. the window will join right of the screen
or the left bank and will increase to fill half of your desktop. Other payments to the
opposite edge of the screen, and will expand to occupy the other half. What makes the
comparison between the contents of the two windows easy. If a screen top window is
pressed, and will expand to fill the entire property.

At the edge of the far right of the taskbar now appears a paste. Hovering over, and
open windows become transparent, revealing the desktop below. (Microsoft calls this
feature Aero Peek.) Click on the node, and the windows scoot out of the way, giving
you access to the desktop documents or applications and repeat the Quick Start office
used to offer to show a benefit.

Get your desktop may soon become more important than it was in the past. Indeed,
Windows 7 removes the sidebar, and part of the screen space that Windows Vista
reserved for tools such as image viewer and weather applet. Instead of occupying the

winsloader

Sidebar, tools now sit directly on the desktop, which does not compete with other
applications for the precious screen space.

Plateau-old New Tricks: Windows 7 taskbar of the Disk Management window is nice.
But its changes in the system tray - also known as the notification area - will have a
significant positive impact.

Changes in Windows 7 to convert the horror of an intrusive system tray (Windows

Vista) to a useful set of shortcuts and other controls.
In the past, any Windows feature I packed more frustration per square inch in the
system tray. And it quickly became dense with applications that users do not want in
the first place, and many unwanted guests used text balloons and other intrusive
methods to alert users to events without interest at inopportune times. At worst, I
acted in the applications of the system tray, as authors hand in the war, I did some
Windows users to re-load.
In Windows 7, applications cannot insist that it is not necessary to install the software;
you cannot throw in the system tray. Instead, grounding applications in a cell that
appears only when you click it, much improved version of the zone exceeded used in
previous incarnations of the plateau. Applications in the pen cannot float word
balloons to you unless you let them. It is a cinch to drag them into the System Tray or
out of it again, so you can take full advantage of control over the applications that
reside there.

More good news: Windows 7 is distributed largely to attack the word balloon on the
operating system troubleshooting, potential security problems and warnings, and the
like. A new area called Action Center - a revamped version of the Vista Security Center
- Colas of these alerts so that you can adjust to your liking. Action Center itself does
not issue notifications system tray itself, but you can shut these off if you do not want
to harass.

All this using the Windows 7 operating system less intrusive less distraction of
Microsoft in a very long time. It is a giant leap from the days when Windows thought
nothing of interruptions of you who saw the symbol is used on the desk informs.

File Management: The Library System

Compared to the taskbar and the system, the Explorer has not changed in Windows 7.
However, the left panel for sports two new ways to get your files: Libraries and large
groups.

It could very appropriate binders were called libraries, which allows you to choose the
appropriate folders in one place. By default, marked Libraries Documents, music,
pictures, video clips, each of which was obtained initially as regular folders to store the
operating system called - items such as My Pictures and Public Pictures.

To take advantage of the libraries, you need to customize. Right-click on a folder on

your hard disk, and can be added to any library. For example, you can convert your
photo library to a group of all folders containing images. You can create your own
additional libraries from scratch, as these packages for all records that relate to your
vacation plans.

Libraries are more useful if Microsoft had built-in Windows functionality saved
searches (introduced in Windows Vista) that allows you to create virtual folders based
on research, such as the pursuit of each image .jpg file on your system. But while
Windows 7 lets you add standard folders to the library, which are not compatible with
saved searches.

Page 5

Start groups, home groups only? Libraries are closely related Groups Home, a new
feature designed to simplify the difficult process of networking known as PC Windows
network name. Machines can only belong to a selective basis group granted between
reading itself or read / write to content libraries and folders, so you can perform these
mundane tasks, but it is important to provide your spouse with access to folderful tax
documents to your computer. for groups can also stream media, allowing you to music
or a movie from the desktop in the studio on a laptop in the living room. And it allows
you to share a printer connected to the computer with all the other teams in the main
group, which is a useful feature if you cannot connect the printer directly to the
network.

The house is not a bad idea, but it seems to deploy Windows 7 immature. Groups
welcome are protected by a password, but prompts you to specify a password of your
choice during the initial configuration, Windows assigns a composite of ten
alphanumeric gibberish characters and tells you to write to not forget. To be honest,
passwords that consist of random characters to ensure security is excellent, and the
only time you need a password for the first new PC connection to the main group did.
But it's still a little odd that you can not specify a password, you have to remember
when configuring - you can do it after the fact, in another part of the operating
system. More annoying and limiting: So Groups Home not only all the teams in
question works with the Windows 7 operating system, a scenario that is not at all
typical time soon. A version that also worked on XP, Vista and Mac was much colder.

Union Research, a new feature in Windows Explorer, and feels incomplete, too. Use the
OpenSearch standard to give Win 7 in the search "links" to external sources. This
feature allows you to sites like Flickr and YouTube search via Explorer. Very neat except that Windows 7 does not come with links to add these sources, and there is no
way to find them. (It is available on the Internet, despite the search engine use to
follow.)

Security: UAC is enabled

Speaking of annoying features of Windows, we will talk about the User Account Control
- Windows Vista security feature that was a title for each people angry for this
operating system. UAC is designed to prevent rogue software from your computer
manipulation to push the end, you are agreeing to run applications or change settings.
The grid that the experience that many users prefer to convert the UAC and take your
chances with Internet attackers. Those who are left enabled might fall into the habit of
clicking recklessly through each symbol, overcome any value of the property could
have been.

Any account of the notorious Vista user checklists gave no control over the function
which is to turn it off, and a copy of Windows 7 UAC allows users to choose between
two levels of mediator between the notification "notify always "and" I informed. "
Windows 7 lets you control the UAC in slide four security settings. As before, you can
accept all the UAC or choose to disable. But you can also learn all UAC to notify you
when a program changes Windows settings, not when adjusting for himself. Instruct
the failure of the impact of the sudden darkening of the screen and can use a copy of
Windows Vista to get your attention.
If I could choose Microsoft was it, all users of Windows 7 with UAC on Full Tilt slider for
rear latch of the unit not to do if installed new programs or regularly visit fashion
unknown sites, and warns that the attenuation is incapacitating effect "is
recommended." about you, Redmond: I intend to recommend adjustments means for
most people who ask me for advice, since most of the theoretical value adjustments of
UAC reserves without paying crazy users.

Some rescue UAC, Microsoft relatively few have made significant changes to the
Windows security system 7. Significant improvement: BitLocker, and a campaign
encryption tool is included only in Windows 7 Ultimate and for businesses, and
Windows 7 Enterprise, which enables you to encrypt USB drives, hard drives, thanks to

a feature called BitLocker to Go. It is one of only a handful of good reasons to prefer
Win 7 Ultimate Home Premium or Professional.

, The default browser for Windows 7, which includes Internet Explorer 8, most of the
security-related improvements, including new smart screen filter (which prevents
dangerous web sites) and In Private study (which allows you use IE without a trace of
where you are or what I did). Of course, IE 8 is also at ease in XP and Vista - and free thus not a reason to upgrade to Windows 7.

Applications: Less is more

Here is the upgrade of a ringing signals different Windows 7 How: Instead of lard with
new applications, eliminating three programs that are not major Microsoft: Windows
Mail (Outlook Express century), Windows Movie Maker (which debuted in Windows me)
and photos of the Windows showroom.

Users who do not want to give up can find all three in live.windows.com free download
Windows Live Essentials. Created a new team, courtesy of Microsoft struck deals with
PC makers. But they are not related to the launch of Windows entertainment programs,
which are much less likely than most Windows applications packets are mired
indefinitely in cases of poor performance.

There are still - and beautifully decorated - two types of exploitation of audio and
video system applications, Windows Media Player and Windows Media Center. Windows
Media Player 12 has a revised interface that divides the banking presentation to handle
the media operation and opinion now hear and see things. You reduce the drive on the
taskbar and Jump List miniPlayer orders are obtained, which allow you to control the
background music without having to leave the application you are using. Microsoft has
added support for multiple media types that support Media Player 11 t pain, including

AAC audio and H.264 - forms you need to play music and unprotected iTunes movies
from d Apple.

Media Center - is not part of the case and Windows 7 Starter Edition - is still very
useful if you have a PC configured with a TV tuner card and use the computer to record
non-TiVo TV programs. Among the improvements is the support of more tuners
program guide.

Backup and Restore Center in Windows 7 allows users greater precision in selecting
files to save Vista did, but most versions of Windows 7 cannot save the network units.
Windows Backup Center strangely weakened Vista and restoration that allows users to
identify specific types of backup files (such as "music" and "Documents"), but not
certain files or folders. Although Microsoft corrects this flaw in Windows 7, which
denies Windows 7 Starter Edition and Home Premium backup network drive
capabilities. This feels chintzy, like a rental company reduce economic Bags sedan. It
also continues the long line of the company in versions of the Windows version that
lacked very good safety backup tools.
The new version of the painting has musical instruments Office 2007 bar adds various
geometric shapes and prepared tools and by natural means such as watercolor brush.
But I have a system for the preparation of a Windows PC to use a new facility even
includes a free image editor impressive Paint.Net.

The nearest thing Windows 7 that a new application is a great way to Windows XP as
intriguing. It is not a way to make Windows 7 look like XP - you can do with Windows
Classic - a function, but a means to allow XP programs that interfere with the
otherwise run victory 7. Unfortunately, only Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise and
ultimately offer, and even then it comes as a shock to 350MB optional required to have
virtual free Microsoft software to install and works only on computers with Intel or
AMD virtualization technology enabled in the BIOS.

Once activated, the status of permit applications 7 Windows XP is supposed to be not

in conformity with the launch in separate windows containing a virtual copy of XP. This
means that Microsoft is clearly the position to act as a security blanket for those
businesses that rely on the programs in most ancient case of properties that cannot be
written to the current operating systems.

Device Management: staging

Windows 7 offers many ways to connect the computer to drive everything from a small
flash drives to heavy network laser printers - USB, Wi-Fi, Ethernet and slot machines,
and more. Devices and Printers, a new section of the control panel is connected with
larger tools symbols seen on the operating system. (If possible, are 3D representations
of the device, one for Sansa Clip MP3 player is almost life-size.)

More importantly, the operating system enters stage device - Paintings devices
designed for specific hardware and designed by manufacturers cooperation with
Microsoft quarrelsome. A digital camera scene, for example, can contain a battery
indicator, a shortcut to upload an image and Windows tools, and links to online
resources such as manuals and websites support, and extending the maker store.

No need to delve into the control panel or through devices and printers to use stage
equipment - was integrated functions in new taskbar in Windows 7. Connect the device
appear as a symbol of the task the bar. Click this icon, and the content of the scene of
the devices appear one at a time, as the existing quick list.

Unfortunately, the steps of a large part of one of Windows 7 that did not work during
my hands-on time with the final version of the operating system. previous versions of
Windows 7 demo contains a small number of floors of the hardware, but Microsoft to

operating system in October. The advantage of being a welcome improvement if
hardware manufacturers have jumped on the bandwagon - and a big disappointment if
they do not.
