Windows 7 Professional

Increased performance and intuitive operation

User-friendly operation is of primary concern for Microsoft, hence the user interfaces for a number of applications and the system itself have been improved in the Windows 7 Professional operating system. Many programs, including Paint and WordPad, have been provided with a ribbon interface that has been common since Microsoft Office 2007. The sidebar familiar from Vista has been removed in Win 7 Professional. Widgets can now be placed directly on the desktop wherever you want them. The Windows 7 Professional operating system as a whole runs faster than its predecessor, which can be ascribed to lower system requirements despite numerous enhancements. The Windows 7 Pro operating system additionally introduces the new DirectX 11, which is also responsible for improved graphics performance. Microsoft Windows 7 Professional now also supports alternative input devices such as tablet PCs, with a variety of functions including multi-touch.

Security with the Windows 7 Professional operating system
The Windows 7 Pro operating system is not just user-friendly and powerful: in its new version, Microsoft has also paid a great deal of attention to security. Now biometric authentication using fingerprints is also supported as standard. Unlike Windows Vista, user account control in Microsoft Windows 7 Professional is now incrementally adjustable. From now on this functions with a whitelist of system programs, which is automatically provided with administrator rights. In order to raise the security level of potentially critical applications, a blacklist of relevant programs can be created. These can be handled separately during execution and a confirmation window will always be called up beforehand. In order for your system to remain secure, it is always kept current with updates from Microsoft in the form of certified drivers and corrections.
Win 7 Professional gives you the ideal operating system for your business or for sophisticated demands in the private sector. The enhanced functions help you to make the best use of your computer.
