Answer 40

I have just changed from Window 7 to Windows 8.1, and I have it working similar, I have most of my icons on the desktop, so it boots straight to the desktop, there is a different way to get into safe mode (Shift+ restart, and a few other steps) rather than just tapping F8, Windows 7 has 3 more years of support to run, no more Service Packs, Windows 10 will be released free to users of 7 and 8 towards the end of the year, but I haven't read very many good reports as yet so I would stay with 7 or 8.1 for the moment. Window 8 is a tad slower than 7, I upgraded because I started getting a lot of blue screen in Windows 7, which was going to cost me money to fix, I observed if I change my default browser from IE 11 to Mozilla Firefox the blue screens stopped, so it was software causing what was leading me to believe were hardware issues, either, according to Tech Support at Microsoft was RAM, Graphics card or Hard Drive, but I exhausted a whole weekend testing everything, no issues with Windows 8.1 on Window 7 Home Premium SP1.

Answer 41

Yes, Windows 8.

Answer 42

It depends on you what do you like in the platform But Windows 8 has lot of good features comparer than windows 7 So I think Windows 8 is better than 7.

Answer 43

I say Windows 8 is better. However I work in IT and I am used to switching between different operating systems.



I will say that many people will automatically hate the whichever new Windows system Microsoft releases. People HATED Windows XP and yet now, it is probably those same people that do not want to leave it.



Having an open mind to the new Windows 8.1 operating system is important. It is not the same as Windows 7 and if you wish it was, then you will have a bad time. If you are able to let go, then you will find Windows 8.1 is actually very productive(of course once you take time to learn the navigation).



Unfortunately, Microsoft finds itself in a tight spot... if it changes the OS as it did with Windows 8.1, people will hate Microsoft, yet if it left it alone and Windows 8.1 was no different than Windows 7, people will still hate Microsoft for not innovating. Instead, people complain about having to relearn Windows, while those same people are okay with jumping to Mac OS and having to relearn how to use a PC anyways..(oh while bleeding their wallet out).



At the end of the day, I think Windows 8.1 runs smooth for me. I liked that the OS changed, I think it changed for the better. I will say that I am also a Linux user and enjoy the way the new interfaces from Microsoft, Fedora Linux and Ubuntu Linux incorporate a search and "dashboard" like start menu. Mac OS is eventually going to do the same.



In Summary, Windows 8 is not Windows 7. Windows 8 does seem to lend it self for touch screen PCs more, but it does not make it hard to use on a standard PC, like mine, at all. It does put things in different places, and sometimes it seems like Microsoft just 'shot gunned' functionality all over the place (some settings are change able in the metro interface only while others are still in the 'classic' location).

Try it!, You'll like it! Anyways... if you don't.. what are you going to do... ? (this is the monopoly Microsoft holds over us, but not much different with Apple or even Linux. Eventually you will have to upgrade)

Answer 44

Yes and Windows 10 is better than 8

Answer 45

Yes .windows 8 is better than 7 in terms of speed but i like windows 7 than 8.

Answer 46

If you say that Windows 8 is more complex than Windows 7, than you re a dumbass. The only difference is Windows 8 s start menu, and the lack of a start button. On the metro style start menu, all that you have to do is press on the tile that says "Desktop" which brings you to your Desktop. If you find that complex, then I pity you.

As for the start menu, all you do is put your mouse in the top right corner of your screen and move it down, then you go it similarly working search bar and other features that Windows 7 lacks. Windows 8 is also a lighter, and faster operating system. However, Windows 10 is coming out, and I m currently using the Tech Preview, and it is much faster than both Windows 8 and 7, though it has a few bugs that are hopefully gonna get fixed once it is out of development. If you re looking for a nicer looking, faster, and yet simple operating system, take a look at Elementary OS Luna or Ubuntu 14.10 or Linux Mint. They are better than Windows if you can sacrifice application compatibility...

Answer 47

Let me tell you some advantages and disadvantages of windows 8.

Advantages

It has better experience.

It is more personalized than windows 7.

Although if you are a game lover you should go for windows 7 because all games are not runnable in windows 8 .

Windows 8 is the latest technology

Windows seven is also not so bad.

It also depends upon your usage which one you would like to take.

So I would personally prefer you windows 7 but if you would like to go ahead with technology you would go with windows 8.

Answer 48

windows 7 is better then 8

Answer 49

Windows 8 is better than 7. I have found windows 8 is faster than windows 7. Windows 8 graphics quality is so good from windows 7. A lot of new feature and option is added in windows 8 whose are missing in windows 7. Data transfer speed and processing speed is very fast than windows 7.

Answer 50

Yes, but not significantly enough to warrant a change for those who already have Windows 7.



Besides Windows 10 is scheduled to come out sometime this year.



If you're going to upgrade your windows from 7, it would be better to wait for Windows 10.



Also, Windows 10 upgrade is being offered as a free upgrade from 7 and 8.1 for the first year after release.



Also, nobody knows if Windows 10 is actually going to be better than Windows 8. According to what they said, it should definitely be better, but with windows, it's always better to see the product than to assume.



Neither Windows 2000 nor Millennium were better than Windows 98SE.



Windows Vista is no where near being better than Windows XP Service Pack 3



So, we'll see if Windows 10 is actually better.



Either way though, both 7 and 8.1 are going to be offered Windows 10 as a free upgrade for the first year of Windows 10 being released.

Answer 62

Windows 8 is really nice for computers with a touchscreen interface, but it's not as user friendly as windows 7. I found that in windows 8, i was looking for basic things i could easily locate in 7.

Answer 69

Hey Rj.



AVOID Windows 8. Its like Microsoft was trying to force an OS designed for tablets onto a laptop. Its garbage. Runs horribly, looks bad, is NOT user friendly, has a hard time with compatibility, and despite what others say, experts know the truth: 8 does not run better than 7 and 8 should have never made it past Quality Assurance. It should have released on Tablets only as Windows Touch, or something.

Answer 70

Yes, Windows 8 is better than 7 in terms of security issue.

Windows 10 looks promising.

Answer 82

Windows 8 is better with more features because it is newer. However, Windows 7 is more stable with less bugs which will take time for Windows 8 to achieve this state.

Answer 83

From a technical standpoint Windows 7 is better than 8. The user experience for the end user is better with Windows 8.

Answer 84

There seems to be an influx of Windows 8 supporters, but it doesn't seem like anyone's giving any actual perspective on why that is. As a computer technician/software developer lemme give you an informed answer.



Windows 8 was designed specifically to simplify the user interface so that just about anyone could get it and use it effectively with as little confusion as possible. Users native to Windows 7 had a big problem with this as most believe it was oversimplified. It's really just a lot different and somewhat more confusing to do more advanced operations with the OS. Unfortunately, a lot of new features in Windows 8 were not explained at all to the user - they have to figure out the new obscure features by themselves, and with most people not knowing how computers work necessarily, it is even more difficult to do this. It was also designed mainly with mobile users in mind, so navigating the GUI on a desktop with it feels kind of awkward to me. It can also even be confusing for users uninitiated with computer concepts. The start screen gets pretty messy for users with a lot of apps. Windows 8 boots up extremely fast compared to any other Windows OS though - which is definitely a great new feature. It's got an experimental app feature too, which a mass majority of users seem to enjoy ( haven't used it at all really). It disappointed me though, everything there has to be approved by Microsoft - no distros, no user-made content, etc. - it's all monetized and put into Microsoft's favor rather than the user's or the communities'. I wouldn't say the speed of its operations differs much from Windows 7 though, but thats my personal experience.



Windows 7 is my personal favorite as it is straightforward enough that anyone can use it effectively, but it has a great amount of freedom along with it that Windows 8 can't quite boast. I don't feel like my hand is being held with it; I get that feeling with Windows 8 often. It isn't as strict with its operations and is certainly more complicated - which makes people like me feel more comfortable using it. The unified search feature is endlessly helpful too - Windows 8's search features are messy and bizarre. Microsoft is acting like desktop PC's are dying out but they;re not - they're gonna stick around and Windows 7 is gonna remain the ideal OS for any desktop.



Bit much to put out here, sorry. Hope I helped, though!

Answer 85

Only an idiot would like Windows 8 over 7

Answer 86

Windows 7 is simpler than 8 ,anyone can learn to use it.



Whereas Windows 8, wants to integrate the touch screen experience with the os ,it is a complex-ish

change from 7.

I would say window 7 is better than windows 8(i liked the start menu)



But the upcoming Windows 10 is gonna be much much much better than any previous one !! Its gonna release this summer!!

Answer 87

Windows 8 is best optimized for computers with a touch screen but you're not missing anything really important otherwise. I personally enjoy it but it is certainly different enough to cause some headaches. I like some of the features of windows 8 personally but the upgrade is really a personal thing. If you have the opportunity, I would do it but if it puts you out, I wouldn't bother.



By the way, if you do decide to update, make sure you update to windows 8.1 . They fixed a few things that people complained about after the release of windows 8



I have heard that it improves your computers performance substantially but I've not seen any noticeable difference.



It really is just a personal thing. If you're willing to go through a small phase of confusion from the changes that windows 8 made, by all means, do it.

Answer 88

i use windows 8 at work and its horrible. Obviously its more new and it will have better percs, but i dont use a computer for that, i need it to be user friendly WHICH IS IS COMPLETELY NOT, thats probably why there coming out with Windows 9 cause 8 sucks. 7 will make any ones life way easier.in windows 8 you don't even have a start menu! Stupid advancement in my opinion.

Answer 89

I love windows 8 but if you like it simple use 7, and it's a lot easier than 8. But 8 has more benefits.

Answer 90

In my experience window 7 is better than 8. Someone like because it works like a androaid. but i think 7 is best.

Answer 91

That depends on the device - Windows 7 is better for most computers that don't have touchscreen and is easy to get used to. That being said, Windows 8 is build with touchscreen in mind and this is why a lot of people don't like it. Personally, I find both operating systems to be nice, but you can't beat OS X - Simplistic and fast.



Windows 7 - Most computers

Windows 8 - Touchscreen computers / tablets.

Answer 92

Window 8 tends to be better for gaming than 7 ,but 7 just seems simpler and more practical. In the end it all is a choice of personal preferences.

Answer 93

Windows 7 is better than Windows 8. There are more features in Windows 8, but, the user interface is not great. Microsoft has revamped Windows for Windows 10, which promises to be better.

Answer 94

In my opinion, windows 7 is better because it is easier to use and seems more organized. I also have bug issues with windows 8 sometimes. Windows 8 is a cool user interface especially if you're using a touch screen laptop, tablet. But if its a desktop, it might be expensive to get a touch screen monitor. But, I'd still say windows 7 is better, in my opinion.

Answer 95

windows 8

Answer 96

obviously windows 8 is better than 7....its an UPDATE they of course are going to make it better. By using windows 7 features and adding better ones windows 8 is clearly superior

Answer 97

Windows 8 is better.

Answer 98

It depends on what you are wanting to do. As a software developer, Windows 7 offers support for almost everything I need to do and typically only needs a reboot on this system when an update is installed. With XP and Vista, the computer seemed to need at least a weekly reboot to "speed back up". Windows 8.1 is a bit slower on this machine and seemingly a bit less stable and I have no use for Windows RT apps, so for me, Windows 7 is the better choice.



However, if I had a touch screen and/or perhaps a better graphics card and slightly more RAM, Windows 8.1 might just offer enough useful features that separate it from Windows 7 to make it worth the install.



If you are just doing web browsing or are using it for a standard business machine (i.e. word processing, spreadsheets, etc), I d stay with 7 until support ends. I can t comment on gaming, since the bulk of the games I play are either ones I ve created for mobile platforms that I m testing or older PC games.



With the exception of the Linux/BSD distros I use, I typically stay one release behind current on my production machines, and with that pattern, seem to avoid some of the common complaints people have, so when Windows 10 is released, I ll probably migrate to 8.1 and when OS X 10.11 (?) is released, I ll probably migrate to Yosemite.

Answer 99

i think windows 8 has a operative sistem better than windows 7

windows 8 is easy and its compatible with many aplications its more easy work in windows 8 than windows 7 but 2 are goodness

Answer 100

Of course Win 8 is better then Win 7..

Each time Microsoft launches their new product they will fix the bugs and loopholes in their OS. Therefore we can consider Win 8 is an upgraded version of previous Win7....



However Windows 7 is much simpler and user friendly compared to Windows 8..

Answer 101

Answer 106

From my point of view windows 7 is better. Easy to use and fast. Windows 8 is good for touch screen laptops.

Answer 107

Personally I don't like the layout of Windows 8 but it is probably better than Windows 7

Answer 108

I think windows 7 is stable, windows 8 has a good looking theme and easy navigation by putting the cursor on the ages and moving around windows easly. But windows 8 consumes more power than windows 7.

Answer 109

Yes it is. Lots of new features, faster, and uses less battery.

The start menu is of course different, and some people find it annoying.

But to be honest, Windows 7 is good too. I don't miss the start menu in Windows 8 much, but what I do miss, is Aero. The glass interface looked so cool, but MS decided to drop it. 8, 8.1, and now even 10, does not support the Aero glass any more.

But if you're not using commercial productivity software like MS Office and Adobe creative suite, I suggest don't use a Windows, use a Linux. A Linux system can do EVERYTHING a Windows system can do, gaming being an exception. LibreOffice/ openoffice gives you a powerful office suite like MS Office, but keeps the classic look of the older office products (NO STUPID RIBBON), plus they are free. Gimp's scripting abilities are even better than Adobe Photoshop (and it's free too).

People who say software isn't available for Linux, are simply wrong. They could say Windows software is not available for Linux, that is true to an extent, but there a lots of Linux alternatives which are free, and are better than their Windows counterparts.

Since Linux is "Unix like", you'll need to learn some unix commands to explore the true capabilities of Linux. But even if you don't, you can still keep using it as Windows, just clicking on stuff. It will behave like Windows, but you won't realize the true power of a UNIX CLI.

If you decide to try Linux, PLEASE stay away from Ubuntu. I'd suggest openSuse. It's a distribution from Novell, a very well known software/solution provider with professionals/ sysadmins. It looks better, supports x11, and is much more customizable.

window 7 is better because window 8 is comfortable in touch screen system and window 7 is good for every type of system

Answer 140

NO, but 8.1 is better. The interface between the "touch screen" and computer management was hopeless in win 8, win 8.1 has a really good interface, in some areas it's a big step up from win 7.



Some here are saying win 7 is faster, I have a 10 years old dual core HP laptop loaded with win 7 and it's almost as fast as my 8 months old i7 gen 4 quad core and I also have a Samsung i7 gen 3 quad core loaded with win 7 which is just a fast as win 8.1 in everyday applications.

Answer 149

i am using 8 but 7 is good

Answer 150

Had ver 8 loaded for one evening and promptly reformatted and reload Win7. Looks bland and childish , no class at all. Researching threads on different forums suggests it may have been rushed as Vista was, to be replaced with 7. Seems 8.1 was better and ironed out a few things , now to be superceded by ver 10. I understand the direction with multiple connectivity , phones , tablets etc but this is not for me , it looks crap. I run 2 laptops and 2 desktops all of which will remain on Win7 , I don t wish my PC s interface to look like something designed for an infant school project or belonging to a cheap phone. My PC s are all fast enough and a few seconds difference in loading time at the cost of looking good is a no brainer for me. Win7 all the way.

Answer 151

Answer 157

I used to have Windows 7, I now have Windows 10 as a replacement, but my usual operating system is Windows 8.1. On the whole, neither. Windows 10 has Cortana, and Spartan too! (Cortana is a voice assistant, and Spartan is a glorified version of Internet Explorer.) But if you don't want to risk your operating system with some bugs, Windows 8.1 is the way to go. The Aero style is great!

Answer 158

Windows 8, I had Windows 7 for a couple years, then switched to Windows 8.1 when it came out, and it is amazing, I do mostly gaming, music, and video editing on it, it's good for those in my opinion.

Answer 165

No it's not better then 7 but every new things come with new features and as far as my concern windows 8 have very amazing UI performance.

Answer 166

Well, Windows 8 is faster and has built-in security programs, but it's made for touch-screen. Windows 7, on the other hand is made for desktops and not touch screen devices. I also think that Win7 has a nicer interface than 8, especially considering that they replaced the Start button with a "Metro" start screen.

Answer 167

No, windows 7 is better.

Answer 168

Windows 7 > Windows 8 | Windows 8.1 > windows 7

Windows 7 runs faster and is much simpler and easier to navigate (I've ran windows 8 since it came out and gotten use to it, I still think 7 is better.)

Answer 170

I bought one when it first came out and my granddaughter and I both hated it. The saleman told us that it did suck because it was meant for use on cell phones. It would have cost me over $200 to have windows 8 switched out with windows 7 so I just returned it and bought a used one at the pawn shop with windows 7

Answer 171

Windows 8 for me, because it runs faster on my current PC. However, Windows 7 is still excellent.

Answer 174

Windows 8 is far better than 7 because of its superior compatibility with new and old applications.

Answer 175

I've tried both, windows 7 has better security and is updated for both newer and older computers. skip 8 and wait till windows 10 comes out

Answer 176

Go with 8

Answer 177

Yes, but if you install Windows 8 then be sure to take advantage of the free downloadable upgrade to Windows 8.1 so that you can use the traditional Windows desktop interface as well as the Metro-style one that Windows 8 comes with as standard.

Answer 178

Answer 181

yes,

Is windows 8 better then 7.Because,Windows eight machines solely take 10-15 seconds besides up, with some switch on even quicker betting on the SSD. Gone square measure the times once you ought to distract yourself by reaching to build a cup of tea whereas your system wakes up.

Answer 182

I think win 7 is better than win 8.

Answer 183

The answer is both yes and no, as it depends on what sort of program you're trying to run. For example, on my Dell Inspiron 660, I can run Microsoft Flight simulator 9 and X (10) and consume fewer system resources on my Windows 7 drive than on my Windows 8 drive. But for resource-intensive games such as World of Warcraft, if you want to run any expansion or patch past Mists of Pandaria, you'd best stick with Windows 7. Overall, both Operating Systems have their merits, so once again, it depends on what sort of program you're trying to run.

Answer 184

Neither. Wait for windows 10

Answer 185

Boot time is the win for the whole OS. Windows 10 > Windows 8 however and a free upgrade in October 2015.

Answer 187

Windows 8 is more for TouchScreens.. If you dont have a touch screen its pretty much just bothersome because windows 7 is easier to use IMO. plus there are some issues with it.

Answer 188

Answer 193

Yes off course. Windows 8 has many good features.

Answer 194

windows 8 is better but u see windows 10 the developer one is the mix of both of them so why not give that a shot

Answer 195

Both rubbish are vistas remakes as Vista was windows worst nightmare, the best windows ever was XP but Microsoft is about money and quantity not quality so the good stuff is absolute.When U use an apple iMac or Mac pros don't install windows on the other half of boot camp, Install Linux its the most stable system on NTSC as apple runs on Fat 32, different formats for different functions both DOS works differently. Linux is still the most stable product on NTSC it cant run on Fat 32

Answer 196

I am still partial to 7. Windows 7 has probably been Microsoft's best Windows (at least IMO).

Answer 197

I personally don't like windows 8, I also don't like the touchscreen on a laptop, I have windows 7 and love it, Ill be keeping this laptop for a long time

Answer 198

Window 8 tends to be an information gatherer, and tends to revert to Vista a g bit with all the permission windows that pop up but as an OS you will get used to it , ok they changed the way you get into safe mode and a few hidden menu's but you can soon get around that, I have mine opening straight onto the desktop, and the only time I see the Start Menu is to shut down, you must download the 8.1 update to make it stable

Answer 199

Well here I am on my uncle's desktop computer and he has both windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit and windows 8.1. To be honest I like them both. Windows 8.1 seems a little faster but I still like windows 7.

everybody has their own choices. if you ask such questions you'll never get right answer.

Answer 208

then again next year if you have windows 7\8\8.1 you will get a free upgrade to Windows 10 which looks great

Answer 209

windows 8 out performs windows 7 yet i beleive most people were dissatisfied with the changes and cosmetics in 8 deviating from the classic windows layout and trying to be more like apple and or droid.

Answer 210

Obviously yes. According to me, it's the improved version of Windows 7.

Answer 211

I've been using Win8.1 for about a year; I enjoy it a lot more than Win7.

Answer 243

windows 8 has an annoying interface and uses up more memory to do simple tasks. it was designed because they thought tablets were gonna replace alot of computers and when they did not they were stuck using a tablet os on a pc

Answer 244

Yes

Answer 245

7 is better

Answer 246

7 is better if you have the resources (RAM,VRAM) to experience its full effect. full customization for 7 is possible, from changing the logonscreen to the boot animation.

8 is less flashy than 7 making it resource friendly, customizing is limited... for now



that for me is the reason why 7 is better. it can do whatever 8 can do. and it looks better doing it

Yes, because programs like photoshop are more likely to be compatable with windows 8, or 8.1, because they are newer OS's.

As a big fan of win7, i don't like win8, which totally rotates the usual settings, the startup is visual but i can't say i don't hate it. Win8 may looks a bit beautiful on appearance but when it comes to the way to use it or the function it is totally a disaster.

Answer 265

8 is best

Answer 266

Look its depends on what you like. See Win8 is having some extra feature..but as people are very much familiar with Win7 They ll definitely like Win7. Even I am working on Win7. Both are very much similar. Except that grid home page and task manager and all.
