Computers are no longer unfamiliar to us now! Because with the progress of society and the improvement of people's living standards, computers have become popular to a large extent. Most people now have computers. Have you ever paid attention to computer systems before? Do you know what the latest systems are now? The latest computer system now is win10, and the one before win10 was win8. Each of these two versions of the system has its own advantages. Let me give you a detailed analysis of these two systems below!
Which one is better, win8 or win10? Comparison of advantages and disadvantages:
1. "Start" menu
One of the most dissatisfied users with Windows 8 is that Microsoft abandoned the classic desktop and "Start" menu. One of the big changes in Windows 10 is the return of the Start menu. The Start menu in Windows 10 is very similar to the old version of Windows, but adds support for Windows 8 tiles.
Tiles can be moved and resized, and the Start menu is highly customizable. The tiles in the Windows 10 Start menu function similarly to the tiles in Windows 8. Windows 10 also retains Windows 8 Live Tiles that can display personalized information. The search bar in the Start menu is more powerful than previous versions. When users start entering search keywords, Windows 10 will start trying to search for relevant information on the local computer and the Web.
2. “Classic” vs. “Universal” apps
In Windows 8 and 8.1, apps in the Windows Store will fill the entire screen, making it more difficult to run multiple programs at the same time. Windows 8 offers two distinct experiences, but neither appeals to its target audience.
In Windows 10, apps downloaded from the Windows Store can run in the window. Combined with the ability to run multiple virtual desktops simultaneously, running applications in a window is even more convenient. Apps in the Windows Store can run in Windows 10 Technical Preview. As Windows 10 continues to be developed, new features and improvements will make it easier to run multiple software at the same time.
3. Windows Store
There are many applications specifically designed for the Windows 8 start screen in the Windows Store, which has left Windows 7 users in the cold. Microsoft is working hard to make Windows Store a tool that all users like, integrating the functions of Windows 8 and the style of Windows 7.
4. Personalization
The Windows 8 start screen allows users to easily arrange and adjust the size of dynamic tiles, adding functions and improving ease of use.
In Windows 10, the classic desktop and tiled user interfaces are no longer completely different interfaces, but elements of both user interfaces exist and are highly customizable. Live Tiles are integrated into the Start menu to display real-time information or launch programs. Apps can be locked or moved into menus for easier access.
5. One operating system for all platforms
There are too many versions of Windows - Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows RT and Windows Phone, making users feel confused. Compared with previous versions, Windows 8 is closer to RT and Windows Phone, reducing the difficulty of developing cross-platform applications and using functions such as dynamic tiles. However, they are still different operating systems that require independent applications and software.
Rather than developing a completely separate operating system for touch devices and traditional PCs, Microsoft is focusing on developing a user experience that satisfies and is useful on all platforms. While Windows 10 won't look exactly the same on Windows Phone as it does on the desktop, there will be many of the same features and shared apps. The big button will make WWindows touch screen device users are very satisfied. Microsoft's goal is to make Windows 10 an operating system suitable for any device and any usage environment.
6. Multiple desktops
The introduction of the Start screen in Windows 8 seems to confirm that Windows will focus on better single desktop management. In Windows 10, users can add or remove desktop environments and open software in desktop environments. Users can conveniently access multi-desktop functionality from any screen including Windows Store software.
7. Task view
Task view allows users to quickly switch between open software. In Windows 8, full-screen Windows Store apps limit the number of ways users can organize their apps.
Task view appears to combine OS X’s “Expose” feature with a more refined version of the Windows-tab option. In addition to task view, Windows 10 also has a "snap assist" feature. Users can easily select paired applications and organize their workspace more easily.
8. Improved Command Prompt
Not all functional improvements in Windows 10 will benefit all users. Microsoft cares most about heavy users. One tool that's getting an upgrade for developers and power users is Command Prompt. The Windows 10 command prompt adds copy, paste and other functions. In addition, Windows 10’s command prompt has also added a large number of new options and hotkeys to make it easier for users to execute commands and start software.
Okay, the editor has gone through some situations of win10 and win8. What should I say? These two Each version of the system has its own advantages and disadvantages. As for which version you choose, it depends on your personal preferences. Of course, these two versions of the system are only part of the computer system. Before them, there were win7, xp and other versions. Now there are more users using win7. We usually see win7 systems installed in Internet cafes and other places. I believe there will be better systems in the future!
