What are windows?
Windows is a widely used operating system developed by Microsoft Corporation. It is a
graphical user interface-based operating system that provides a platform for users to
interact with and control their computer hardware and software. Windows was first
released in 1985 and has since undergone numerous updates and upgrades to become the
robust and versatile operating system that it is today.
The Windows operating system is designed to run on a wide range of devices, from
personal computers and laptops to tablets and smartphones. It has become one of the most
ubiquitous operating systems in the world, with an estimated 1.3 billion active users
worldwide as of 2021.
One of the key features of Windows is its graphical user interface (GUI), which allows
users to interact with their computer using a mouse and keyboard. This interface is made
up of various graphical elements such as icons, windows, buttons, and menus, which allow
users to perform tasks such as opening files, browsing the internet, and running
applications.
Windows also includes a wide range of built-in applications and tools, such as the Windows
Media Player, Internet Explorer, and the Microsoft Office Suite. Additionally, users can
download and install third-party applications from the Microsoft Store or other sources.
Another important feature of Windows is its file system, which organizes files and folders
on a computer's hard drive. Windows uses a hierarchical file system, which means that files
are organized in a tree-like structure with folders (directories) at the top level and files
within those folders.
Windows also includes a number of security features designed to protect users from
malware and other threats. These features include Windows Defender, a built-in antivirus
program, as well as built-in firewall and encryption tools.
