Microsoft Windows 8 is the operating system of new generation. It has amazing new feature, a stylish and refreshing look. And let me tell you it is lot faster than the previous versions of windows. It boots faster loads programs faster and even shut down in no time.
Its Metro GUI is also very nice and perfect for touch screen devices. It has its own applications which are available in Windows Store, another new thing in Windows 8.
It also has default support for a large range of hardware like USB 3.0, wireless cards etc.
So if you are looking for a change, do try Windows 8.
Features
New features and functionality in Windows 8 include a faster startup through UEFI integration and the new "Hybrid Boot" mode (which hibernates the Windows kernel on shutdown to speed up the subsequent boot), a new lock screen with a clock and notifications, and the ability for enterprise users to create live USB versions of Windows (known as Windows To Go). Windows 8 also adds native support for USB 3.0 devices, which allow for faster data transfers and improved power management with compatible devices, and hard disk 4Kn Advanced Format support, as well as support for near field communication to facilitate sharing and communication between devices.
Safety and security
Additional security features in Windows 8 include two new authentication methods tailored towards touchscreens (PINs and picture passwords), the addition of antivirus capabilities to Windows Defender (bringing it in parity with Microsoft's Security Essentials software) SmartScreen filtering integrated into the desktop, and support for the "Secure Boot" functionality on UEFI systems to protect against malware infecting the boot process. Parental controls are offered through the integrated Family Safety software, which allows parents to monitor and control their children's activities on a device with activity reports and safety controls.
Windows Store and Apps
Windows 8 introduces a new style of application, Windows Store apps. Apps can run either in a full-screen mode, or be docked to the side of a screen. They can provide notifications and a "live tile" on the Start screen for dynamic content. Apps can use "contracts"; a collection of hooks to provide common functionality that can integrate with other apps, such as search and sharing. Apps can also provide integration with other services; for example, the People app can connect to a variety of different social networks and services (such as Facebook, Skype, and People service), while the Photos app can aggregate photos from services such as Facebook and Flickr.
Interface and desktop
The new user interface is based on Microsoft's Metro design language, and features a new tile-based Start screen similar to that of Windows Phone, which has replaced the previous Start menu entirely. The Start screen displays a customizable array of tiles linking to various apps and desktop programs, some of which can display constantly updated information and content through "live tiles". As a form of multi-tasking, apps can be snapped to the side of a screen.
Web browsers
Exceptions are given to web browsers classified as being "New experience enabled", which provide a special version that runs within the "Metro" shell as an app. Web browser apps are distributed alongside desktop web browsers instead of through the Windows Store, and also have access to functionality unavailable to other apps, such as being able to permanently run in the background, use multiple background processes, and use Windows API code instead of WinRT . However, only the user's default web browser can be used in this setting.
So here are the links for download
(I know that clicking on so many links is frustrating, but i want you to know that the maximum upload size for me and freely downloadable file size for you is 300MB. So i had to split the file in parts. But I assure you that you will get proper downloading speed without any interference)
To combine the files just extract the first part using 7-zip or win-zip or win-rar.
The keys are included in the files!
