One can’t say that they exactly did all about ‘only for touch’, if
we analyse we can feel that windows 8.1 has basically provided dual era :
first, of course the tiles which is favourable/easy for touch
screen devices especially the tablet computers,
second, some of the great features of ‘desktop’ have been
restored hence making the O.S. friendly for desktop/laptop users.
So why should I buy/upgrade to windows 8.1 ?
So let’s
have a taste on the features, although it has got many., let’s have an eye on
the key ones,
Start Button:
The final
return of the start button on the desktop feels very acquainted, however it's
simply a visual prompt for how to get back to the Start screen, still it’s
presence is worth.
Less space required:
No doubt
that windows 8.1 came up with many new features on contrast it requires even
less space than that was required by windows 8 for setting up on the storage
device.
Enhanced multitasking:
Snap - the
ability to have multiple app screens open simultaneously. You can open multiple
windows at same time. Snap lets you resize any window to any size, hence
providing better feel of the multitasking especially for those having a bit big
screen.
Sky drive integration:
In this era,
cloud storing is becoming more efficient, Windows 8.1 allows you to make
SkyDrive the default place to store all things that require saving like
documents and photos and also these data will be accessible from anywhere you
want, as stored on cloud.
Lively Lock screen:
It’s more
like the quick access to useful widgets like calendar, calculator, attending a
skype call even when your main home screen is locked. Also now, on locked home
screen, user can enjoy a slideshow of the photos from his/her own data.
Auto updates of Apps:
All those
numerous apps which require frequent updates will no more bother the user by
notifying them to update manually. Now they will be automatically updated in
this new O.S
Boot right to the desktop:
It’s more of
a feature to give the feel of previous windows to the user by directly booting
up to the desktop instead of the start screen, however there will be an option
& you have to select either of them.
Universal search:
Windows 8.1
comes with Universal Search. It means one search command and users will be able
to access files stored in the computer as well as the web content on the
Internet, also from the live apps, if your search item is available on them.
Bing provides this on - web searching by default
These are actually some of the
attractive sides of the windows 8.1, however users have more expectation, so
try these new version of the o.s. Windows 8.1 is available as a free download
for Windows 8 users. However, Windows 7 users have to upgrade it through Microsoft’sUpgrade Assistant, also you are invited to share your views/expectations with
us, the team-edictogram
