In 2021, Windows 7 is used on 13% of computers worldwide. Users note the stable operation, flexible functionality and absence of problems with software and devices. The vast majority of new programs are installed and work effectively on this system.
In the graphical design settings, it is worth highlighting the Aero technology, which was introduced in Seven. It allows you to make the window elements transparent.
The security systems are represented first of all by the Enhanced Storage technology, which allows the encryption of removable data storage devices. The AppLocker, a built-in utility, blocks access to other users' applications. A firewall alerts the user if any program requires network access.
Windows 7 has a range of tools for opening multimedia files: music, images, movies. There is also a traditional set of simple games: sapper, solitaire and others. In one of the system updates support for DirectX 12, so that the installation of most new games will not be a problem.
After the end of support for Seven, the main inconvenience was the need to install some drivers manually. Also have to configure new programs and take care of data security.
Seven has been well polished over the years, and this is its main advantage in 2021. The main disadvantages include security problems due to lack of support.
