What’s New? - Desktop Taskbar – Bigger Icons, Preview, Rearrange   Jump Lists – provide a way to access recently used, files, pictures and emails right as you hover over the icon for faster computing
What’s New? Snap – Way to resize open windows by dragging them to the edge of the screen Peek – like x-ray vision to see through all open windows to the desktop  Shake – clear view by shaking front window
What’s New? Desktop Search Now you wont have to go looking through your start menu to find what you need. Simply type it in the search bar and it shows up. External Hard Drive With Windows XP you needed a third party to help you back up your data. Now you just plug in your external hard drive and an option to “Use this drive for backup” shows up in auto play.
What’s New?-Performance 64-bit processor  Large amount of information support  Can use more RAM up to 4GB More responsive when running multiple programs Compared to the 32-bit processor more power
File Management-Libraries Bringing together information from different access points External Hard Drive Home Computer   Work Laptop Files will remain in original places but can be put together so they can be worked on
File Management-Libraries Windows categorizes everything into libraries such as Documents, Mixed Media, Images, Music, and Videos. Before everything you worked on got added to my documents, whether it was music, pictures, or essays. Now, Windows 7 automatically files everything where it needs to be, making it easier to search for things in the future.
