This is the Review of Windows 8.1 for PC. Let's start from the start menu which has gone missing. If you are a start menu fan, you are required to use third party applications like'classic shell'.


The next nail is that it is stuck somewhere between PCs and Tablets. The tablet apps take a while to open. When you want to open a simple image file, windows will directly go on to use the Tablet App for image viewing. However, PC apps have survived and defaults can be changed. Windows allow deletion of many tablet apps.


The another feature is the Store which is quite handy. The task manager is highly improved and not at all like the Windows 7 or xp one which needed to be clicked end task a thousand times. The metro screen is helpful if you want to directly delete apps from it. The startup time is higly reduced. Gone are the days when you had to go for a cup of tea to start your pc.


It will boot even before you return from a trip to the next room. Some old programs are not conlmpaitable to it.  Other components are quite similar to Windows 7.
