Similarities and differences in Windows 7, 8 and 10

I'm doing research for my book on the similarities and differences between Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10. I want to know what makes 10 if large amongst the rest and that lack of windows 7 and 8. I want to know exactly where I can find this information for reference purposes.

Hello

I'm sorry, but we are here to help posters with their computer problems, only not to do homework, assignments, etc.

And the only way to learn is to do the research yourself.

I suggest that you use your favorite search engine (Google, Bing, etc.).

Kind regards.

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
    If my assumption is correct, you are looking for which file to download service pack update.
    Worry not choose files. Download the .iso to the update file, either burn it or mount or extract it and install. These files are called the symbol files. They differ in the language, for example. frequency refers to the French version. They are used to debug the Service Pack and are not really necessary unless you start to run into problems and try to find solutions on your own.

    Can someone tell me, what is the difference between windows 7 OEM and sales vs retail?

    Can someone tell me, what is the difference between windows 7 OEM and sales vs retail?

    There is no difference in the product itself.

    Although if you get a generic OEM full version, it contains the
    even software, it has the following disadvantages compared to the
    commercial version:

    1. the biggest drawback of an OEM version (at least in the USA) is
    that its license it permanently binds to the first computer, it is
    installed on. He can never legally be moved to another computer, sold,
    or given (except with the original computer). If the computer
    dies or is stolen, your license dies with him.

    2. he can't do a clean install, not an upgrade.

    3 Microsoft offers no support for OEM versions. You cannot call their
    with a problem, but rather to secure the necessary support of your
    OEM; who take in charge may go anywhere between property and non-existent. Or
    You can get support elsewhere, like in these forums.

    What is the difference between windows 7 pro debug/checked and simple windows 7 pro? /

    Regular accumulation is the regular version at retail of Windows because most of us use (SP1 or not).

    The build Debug/Check is specifically aimed at developers who developed to make it easier for the debugging flag
    drivers to be developed. This build runs much slower due to the abduction of optimizations and other functions.

  • JavaScript - the difference between ' window ' and 'document.'?

    Hello

    I'm a Javascript newbie which ended just by the first screen of Captivate (CP9) (HTML5) using Javascript.

    A slide with several text entry areas (TEBs) and a Submit button, which performs a function to validate the TEBs (thank you David for have started me).

    I call the function in the script of the Submit button window and have Javascript code in the Index file.

    In the Javascript code, I used the ' windows ' and 'document '. (don't know if I've used them correctly but the works of Javascript)

    I don't really know the difference between them.

    In Javascript, I know that window is loaded in the browser first, then the document is loaded in the window.

    It's like the window is your browser window and the document is the HTML page inside.

    Also, you can use each of them to access specific properties - and window has a context.

    Some examples of my javascript:

    • window.cpAPIInterface.setVariableValue ("q1_fback", "");         -erase a message of feedback (text of legend with variable) associated with BER
    • document.getElementById("Text_Entry_Box1_inputField").style.border = 'solid red medium. "  -modification of the border of an object invalid BER (red)

    My question is:

    1. What is the difference between ' window ' and "document." in a context of Captivate?

    I will post you more questions to find out how:

    1 use loops to knock down my code

    2 reuse the same function in other slides

    Concerning

    Donal.

    Your assumptions are correct.

    the cpAPIInterface is in the window.

    The Text_Entry_Box1_inputField is in the document, not the window, but you can use:

    window.document.getElementById("Text_Entry_Box1_inputField").style.border = 'solid red medium. "

    Scope of variables depends on how and when they are declared, and it is generally best to limit their scope and not use them globally in the window object. All seem to be available in the cPs variables window.

  • What is the difference of windows 7 32-bit to 64-bit programs?

    What is the difference of windows 7 32-bit to 64-bit programs.

    Original title: * bits *.

    64 bit 32 vs

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/32-bit-and-64-bit-Windows-frequently-asked-questions

    My PC running the 32-bit version or 64-bit Windows?

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/find-out-32-or-64-bit

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-7

    Windows 7 64 bit comes in handy when you need to deal with at least 4 GB of RAM or more. Windows 7 32 bit can use up to 3.2 GB of RAM. Because the address space of memory is much larger for 64-bit Windows, this means that you need two times more memory than the 32-bit Windows to accomplish some of the same task, but you are able to do much more, you can have more apps open, do things like run a virus scan in the background it will affect the performance of your system. 64-bit Windows 7 is safer too, malicious code cannot easily infiltrate it, drivers are more reliable because they must be signed before it can work with 64 bit Windows 7.

    Regarding compatibility, you need device drivers 64-bit hardware devices, you may have. In addition, there is no 16-bit subsystem in Windows 7 64-bit, which means, your applications must be 32-bit only, not 16-bit Installer or programs uninstaller. Also, if you decide to switch to Windows 7 64 bit in the future, there is no way to upgrade from 32-bit Windows, clean install only.

    Can I run 32-bit programs on a 64-bit computer?

    Most programs designed for a computer running a 32-bit version of Windows running on a computer running 64-bit Windows versions. The notable exceptions are many antivirus programs, and some hardware drivers.

    Drivers designed for 32-bit versions of Windows do not work on computers running a 64-bit version of Windows. If you try to install a printer or other device that only has 32-bit drivers available, it won't work correctly on a 64-bit version of Windows. For information on updating drivers and troubleshooting issues with device drivers for 64 bit versions of Windows, contact the manufacturer of the device or program.

    I would be using a 64-bit computer?

    The benefits are more obvious when you have a large amount of RAM (RAM) installed on your computer, typically 4 GB of RAM or more. In this case, because a 64-bit operating system can handle large amounts of memory more efficiently as a 32-bit, 64-bit operating system can be more responsive when you run several programs at once and switching between them frequently.

    If I am running a 64-bit version of Windows, I need 64-bit drivers for my devices?

    Yes. All devices devices need 64-bit drivers to work on a 64-bit version of Windows. Drivers designed for 32-bit versions of Windows do not work on computers running 64-bit Windows versions.

    To learn how to check for drivers, see update a hardware driver that is not working properly or go to the website of the manufacturer of the device. You can also get information about drivers by going to the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor website.

  • Difference between Windows movie maker vs Windows live movie maker and Windows photo gallery live vs Windows Photo Gallery

    Title: Windows original Photo Gallery and Windows Movie Maker

    Windows Movie Maker and windows photo gallery. picture of Windows live and Windows Live Movie Maker. What is the difference between these programs and who is better and easier to work with?

    The answer is all one could expect from a "Microsoft Support Engineer". "." It is not an answer, it is a lazy response that obscures the issue. Who the * wants to sit here by clicking on the reference links? Try to take the time to answer the question correctly and clearly. The fact is that Windows Movie Maker, despite its flaws, is logical and easy to learn. Windows Live Movie Maker is the product of developers geeks trying to justify their work by producing a piece of absurd confusion that would be considered to be an 'upgrade' because it seems different from its predecessor. The fact is that Windows Movie Maker is MORE like film professional software publisher of Live Movie Maker, which is just no unwanted standard which is more like a project of diploma a graduate programmer. Movie Maker design allowed me to make the easy transition to the most advanced professional software, but this can never be achieved with the Windows Live Movie Maker, which is ridiculously long as stupid as his name.
