Windows 8 Remains Weak Compared To Windows 7

Microsoft latest operating system Windows 8 launched in October 2012 still remains unsuccessful in satisfying its users.  The Global Market Share of the Operating reached 10 percent after 16 months as compared to Windows 7, where the mark was reached in 6 months only. No,doubt Windows 7 was the best in satisfying its users providing the best features and great user interface. It seems like Microsoft basically designed Windows 8 keeping Tablet users in mind,where desktops users faced a lot of problems with the new operating system. Some main problems includes, a new start menu which is basically for touch monitors, Long process to shutdown the system, Some programs drivers not suitable, Lack of a mechanism to close apps and much more. Nowadays, users want a operating system which is Fast, beyond any limitations and can support all types of programs and software. If we talk about previous versions of Windows operating system which includes Windows 7, XP, Vista, they were somehow liked by people. Many users criticize the new Metro interface in Windows 8, which was designed primarily for touchscreen monitors, making it compatible with mobile devices. Well , we hope that Microsoft should come with some new Operating System which could leave behind all previous Windows versions. Below is the Statista Chart which shows the Global Market Share of Windows 7 and 8 since their release.
