Download this guide to learn how to make your Windows 8 or 8.1 look and feel like Windows 7.
If you have a PC with Windows 8 or 8.1 but miss Windows 7, there’s no need to downgrade. Following a few simple steps, you can make Microsoft’s current operating system look and feel almost identical to its predecessor. Through this ebook, you can learn how to bring back the Start menu and the attractive aero glass theme, and how to hide other Windows 8 elements like the Charms menu.
Without a doubt, the most unfamiliar (and, for some, most annoying) feature of Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 is its tile-based Start screen. Where Windows 7 lets you choose from a list of applications by pulling up the Start menu, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 make you go to a completely separate screen just to launch an application or conduct a search. Windows 8.1 places a Start button in the lower left corner of the screen, but don’t be fooled; it does nothing more than take you back to the same tile-based Start screen when you click it. With this download you will also receive free weekly coverage on the latest technology news and developments from Laptop Magazines eNewsletter.
