If you currently have a personal
computer running Windows 7, Windows XP or Windows Vista then you can upgrade to
Windows 8 Pro (Professional). With Windows 8 Pro, you can connect and share your
files. Windows 8 Pro also adds enhanced features if you need to connect to
company networks, access remote files, encrypt sensitive data, and other more
advanced tasks.
The new Windows
8 start screen is your personalized home for items you use the most and can be
customized according to your user preferences. Windows 8 Live tiles provide
real-time updates from your Facebook, Twitter, and e-mail accounts. Along with
the new Start screen, the lock screen now includes e-mail, calendar, and clock
widgets.
Windows has also
made changes to make your PC more secure by boosting its existing security
features and adding "SmartScreen," which acts to prevent suspicious programs or
apps from being installed or running on your machine. Finally, Windows 8 also
gives you the ability to "refresh" itself to give users a new starting point and
a cleaner version of Windows.
You can upgrade
to Windows 8 from Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows 8 Release
Preview, Windows 8 Consumer Preview, or Windows Developer Preview, but you might
not be able to keep all of your files, software programs, and settings. The
following table shows what you can keep during an upgrade, depending on the
current version of Windows you are running. If you choose to boot from removable
media, you won’t be able to keep your software programs, Windows settings, or
