What is the difference between Windows 8 and Windows 8.1
I am buying a new PC that is loaded with Windows 8 and I don't really like the looks or how to use it. Does Windows 8.1 work similar to the older versions, say XP or Windows 7?
No, Windows 8.1 is just WIndows 8 with a few upgrades. The Windows-8 operating systems is Microsoft's way of crossing platforms on all devices... PCs, Laptops, Tablets, Phones, etc. There is a Vista-WIndows 7 style desktop available in Windows 8 that you can set to come up on start-up or access from a button on the Windows 8 screen. You have my sympathy... hope this helps.
