I am the owner of a laptop with the system Windows. To be more precise, last year I took advantage of the launch promotion Windows 8 and I bought a box containing a pair of discs with Windows 8 Upgrade and next to them (of course) the license code. Because I have a laptop and I've tried on it before Windows 8, I found its operation with the touchpad very convenient, so I did not hesitate and paid honestly for the system. I used the classic, often criticized "Eight" quite happily until last week, when I switched to a newer version, Windows 8.1 Update…
...well, and then it started. I downloaded a massive 3 GB update to my computer, which after a week of use did more harm than good. On the one hand, I'm glad that I have the current version on my computer Windows and that I can thus enjoy a wider range of software that is available in Windows Store. I'm also glad he's the one Windows Store clearer, simpler and that app updates happen in the background, without my knowledge. I am also pleased with the variety of icons on the home screen and the overall updated environment that the update brought me. But that's probably all that pleases me.
Since I switched, my WiFi connection regularly drops out, even though the system says that I have the latest drivers installed - and I also had to download them from the WiFi module manufacturer's website, since the pre-installed driver in Windows 8.1 Update simply does not work and one can even stand on one's head. This was actually the very first problem I ran into a few minutes after the upgrade, and I solved it just the way I mentioned - nevertheless, sometimes it happens to me that the WiFi drops out, especially when one wants to move something to OneDrive, which is now part of the system.
Another big problem is slowness. While Windows 8 ran smoothly on my computer, on the "faster" Windows 8.1 Update After pressing the Start button, it takes me two seconds to open the Home screen environment. Of course, during those 2 seconds it is not possible to do anything with the computer, because it simply freezes. Well, in connection with the home screen environment and Metro, I am running into two more problems. HotCorners alias interactive corners, me after switching to the latest Windows they just stopped working. While at the good old one Windows 8 was a snap to switch between the desktop and the Modern app, now I have to press the "Win" key to get to the menu and from there I have to switch to the desktop. A similarly complex procedure awaits me when switching back to the Metro application. Already nesthow to move the mouse to the upper left corner and switch there. Now I have to go down with the mouse to the Start button (which I want to get rid of as soon as possible) and from it upwards, when the whole multitasking menu will pop up.
But I consider the broken Charms Bar and the slowed down Search to be the biggest win. Search in Windows 8 was also not exactly the fastest with a large number of files, but one did not have to philosophize about whether to restart the computer or wait. AT Windows Unfortunately, 8.1 Update is like that, and before I search and launch the application via Search, I admit that I should have launched it much faster using Win+R or the home screen. I also mentioned the broken Charms Bar. Yes, Charms Bar, probably the most important feature, after switching from Windows 8 na Windows 8.1 Update the Charms Bar simply stops working. And it's not just my problem - as I later found out on the internet, the same problem (and many others I mentioned above) are being complained about minialmost hundreds of other users directly on the forums Microsoftu, but also on other world-famous foreign forums. In order to use the Charms Bar again, one must then restart the file manager (explorer.exe) and even so the Charms Bar will only work for a few more minutes. So I hope he takes these problems Microsoft seriously and when he already plans to release this month Windows 8.1 Update 2, then I hope the new update will solve the problems caused by the first update. Otherwise, I'll probably have to go back to Windows 8 and in the future I'll have to have a very good reason to shell out the money for a newer version Windows. At least that one Office and Xbox work as they should…
Fly Around the WorldMicrosoftum?
… and that's why I have a Mac and I don't deal with these things :-) Windows never.
Windows only on programs that for Apple they don't exist (in Parallels I drag the XP card, otherwise never again...
Windows never again, when I respect it so much, nothing has changed in the 7 years I've had it :)
I got hired.ancand excuses to buy a PC with Win 8.1... It was such a terrible experience that even those who convinced me to buy it didn't want to work on it. So I successfully sold it, and now I only and exclusively use Mac OS and iOS. Nothing else than Apple We haven't used it at home for years and now everything is on Apple and in the company. The last thing that bothers me is my wife, who got a Samsung Galaxy with a floral pattern a year ago, she's been cursing it for a year, so I'm looking forward to iPhone 6, who will replace the last black sheep of our family...
This article sounds crazy (especially from a website about Applu). I myself am mostly on iOSu, but since the release I have been using windows 8.1 and absolutely no problems = in my experience it is the fastest desktop system to use today.
I did not observe a single error mentioned above, rather it seems to me to be some kind of HW problem... .
MirekJ: I confirm my experience with Samsung Galaxy Table (3).
The system is so stuttering from the start that it's infuriating. Fluency is something unknown to him. A person who has never tried an iPad can only gallop until I borrow an iPad... . I have both at home, so I can compare first hand.
PS: I started with Android on my first Samsung tablet.
I have both an ipad and a lenovo tablet with win 8.1 at home. I also didn't have a problem with the update, that it would freeze, etc. I also think it's more of a HW problem. To that fluidity IOS and androids. It is difficult to compare two different systems. Continuity IOS is achieved by a large number of restrictions which apple I did. ios I consider such a toy to be something I can have fun with and it's quick and fast. And yet how suddenly he comes to koneactivity or work usability, etc ios it's for two things. android has lags because it has countless more options and it is an open system. and so it is and so it shall be. We can only imagine what he would look like ios on different products from different manufacturers if it were open source. He would end up just like an android. one has to choose for oneself. It will be quick and easy ios without advanced options. or open android despite occasional crashes and lags.
I also had the worst experiences with Win (it's true that they're not mine, I swear wherever I go. After updating from Win8 to 8.1, half of the programs stopped working, they had to be reinstalled. drivery. Whether it was the network card, touchpad or sound!!, it doesn't work, it crashes, the design is useless, unclear, disgusting, disgusting. And iTunes synchronization doesn't work, if I have music there "synchronization completion failed", but it didn't work even on the eights, I don't have the strength to solve it. I'm throwing it out the window.
Well, to be objective about OS X, I didn't manage to connect the printer via wifi and I still can't print black, although the option is there, but it's confusing and I don't know how to put it together, and canon support wasn't able to help.
Honey Apple. I feel so calm when I use it. Soothing design.
jackie123456: since Android is not a secure system, it cannot be designed to work. KoneIt is true that the activity is better, but since it is no longer necessary in most cases, this advantage is sporadic. Especially with a tablet that is only suitable for certain types of work. Pro I'm just playing Android surrounded by idiots and it will disappoint in the end.
Otherwise, I'm an Amiga OS baby, then only Win. Such problems have been common on Win since the beginning, but I have to say that there were the fewest problems with Win7 and I still use it on Mac today. Drivers are a weakness, especially where there is no support from decent manufacturers and MS doesn't take care of everything. ProIt's a different ecosystem. OSX is cool, but it's also not 100% .
I also have a tablet/notebook (Asus T100TA), and on it Windows 8.1 latest update, but I don't have any of the problems in the article, everything works nice and fast, despite the fact that it's not a very powerful machine, but it's enough for school
JK: I would say nothing about security. IOS it's also not nearly as safe as it used to be. Very busyancHowever, in my companies I use a PC with Win for work, and it is also not secure, on the contrary (I was most amused when in some apple used to work at the macov factoryancand pc with win xp :D link:http://www.dsl.sk/article.php?article=15686 ).And that oneoneI think that activity is important, especially nowadays, when everything is only synchronized and cloudhe eats. what would a person do if he didn't have a wifi or 3g or LTE data connection nearby. It happened to me many times that I needed to transfer something somewhere and when there was no wifi or hotspot, I was out of luck.
W8.1 is hell. Games keep crashing, Skype is AWFUL, the environment is disgusting. I regret not discovering the magic Applu before buying this laptop.
Unnecessary article, rather information about that Apple hired Musa Tariq.
Coolhis: No no…este one o Microsoftand then 2 about Android, then at least 1 article about iphone6 and something interesting. ;)
Such an objective and unbiased article could perhaps be written better by Radek Hulán on the subject of OS X.
