Regularly developers of operating systems remind users that using the most recent versions of platforms is a correct solution that allows you to increase the speed of the computer. Also, the developers focus on the fact that in new versions of the OS add new features that not only simplify the work of the user, but also make a general process of using more creative. Especially clearly practical changes in systems are viewed between the OS, which came to the light with a difference of 5-10 years. The developers clearly see what shortcomings are present in the released system, and are already trying to prevent the same errors in the future. Practice shows that everything happens, so it makes sense to upgrade to the fresh OS to sense all its advantages.
Advantages of Windows 10 over Windows 8.1
According to the developers, in the new Windows 10, the creators carried out some rethinking of the main essence of their OS, and it turned out, in their opinion, what the most common users around the world were waiting for. In some sense, this is true.
- Recycled menu "Start". Due to the lack of a full "startup" in the past two versions of the OS, many users did not dare to move with Windows 7 to something new. In the new version of the menu system returned, and now it is practically the same as in the "seven". Also "live" tiles and other features present in Windows 8 appeared.
- Virtual desktops and a convenient task manager. Each owner of Windows 10 can switch between dozens of desktops, which provides convenience. Now the user is not necessarily creating separate folders, as the workspace is enough for any tasks.
- Notification panel. Now software developers can bind to their notifications to their programs that will be displayed in a separate OS panel. All as on smartphones.
- Voice assistant. With the help of a Cortana's voice assistant, you can, without any problems, search for the necessary information, create search files and much more with a voice. This feature also moved from the mobile version of the system.
Transition from Windows 8.1 on Windows 10
- First of all, you need to be sure that the PC corresponds to the system parameters of the new OS. These are the following: processor with a frequency of 1 GHz (or faster) with support for PAE, NX and SSE2; 1 GB (for a 32-bit version) or 2 GB (for the 64-bit version) of RAM; 16 GB (for a 32-bit version) or 20 GB (for the 64-bit version) of the hard disk space; Graphic card with DIRECTX 9 support.
- Now it is worth paying attention to the fact that the system must propose an update to Windows. We are talking about the program "Go to Windows 10", which appears after the next major system update. If this program is present on the PC, you need to go to it and reserve Windows 10 (the corresponding button will be present). Also, the program will analyze the "iron" of the computer and will make a conclusion that will show, you can upgrade or not. If everything is in order, in the near future the program will start downloading the new version of Windows, and later the installation will take place. If there are problems with the detection of the above program, then often the corresponding icon appears in the taskbar (as the Microsoft logo).
- If there are no programs to upgrade, either once it has been removed from the computer, you can additionally download software, allowing you to quickly go to Windows you need to go through this link http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId\u003d616446. And to spend everything the same as indicated in the past paragraph.
- Installing a new OS occurs about 1 hour. It is worth paying attention to the fact that together with the update to the PC will remain all documents and media files, while the programs present on the PC system disk will be deleted. If possible, a backup copy of some data should be made, since it is impossible to exclude the probabilities of failures and other troubles associated with the installation of the OS.
It is important to note that after updating the system, the system will remain the same. For example, if Windows 8 Home Premium has been installed, then Windows version 10 will also be with the HOME console.
It should be borne in mind that the free update of the system will be available during the year. After this period, it is no longer possible to update to Windows 10 for free. In any case, when updating the system to Windows 10, you can spend a small test OS, and if you don't like something, you can just go back to last version. This feature is also available for a limited period of time, so you need to get acquainted enough, and if I did not like something - return. Often there are failures when updating when the OS is not entirely correct. In this case, it is advisable to restore the system.
