Did SE finally killed Windows 7?

And with OpenShell you can get the Windows 7 look&feel back.

I use it and i do not miss Windows 7. But Windows 10 runs slower. It needs waaay longer to start.

It takes mine 5 - 10 sec to start (windows 10) what kinda Ssd/m.2/sata are u using.

But windows 7 piff true masters use Xp professional its the only true god XD it's been painful finding all the components for that but it's sits on the shelf working perfectly.

I can't wait for Windows 13, which will be a hallway and people will hate it, only to develop a cult following in the next decade.

And of course, the very first version of Windows 14 will be the arguably the single worst OS ever made. But once the first major service pack comes out...

That sounds like something with your PC, because win10 on a ssd starts in like 5 seconds.

Waiting for the day they drop PS4 support, that'll start bigger discussions on the forums.

I would hope that they wait until people can reliably get their hands on a PS5 before that happens

They already said that PS4 will be supported in 7.0. No telling how long it will be supported after that, though.

And that is the issue. You solve the problem of slowish software by buying faster hardware. Try it with a PC from the year 2009. And you will notice, that Windows 10 starts much slower than Windows 7. It is the same with Teams or Slack. A very slow chat app, which needs 500 MB RAM because it has an embedded Chrome browser. And how do people solve the terrible performance? With Quadcore CPUs, SSDs and 32 GB RAM.

Its 2022, why are you still using a spinning drive?

Unless you're using something like optane to cache data your bootup time is going to be slow on both OS's with a HDD, but win10 fast boot feature is still going to make it boot a few seconds faster than 7's outdated quick boot feature.

Also, Windows 10 came out in 2015. Of course its going to be slower on outdated hardware from 2009. That's just how hardware and software works.

not to be impolite but don't act that way/say things like that to people who may not have access to better hardware. you don't know their situation and if square felt having an SSD or some other solid-state solution was the only way to go then they could easily force that in the system requirements. it's also fairly common for japanese players to only own a PC for basic word processing/spreadsheets (if they're not playing on a console) since gaming PCs aren't (or, weren't... it's very, very slowly changing) really a thing there.

also the term you're looking for is "mechanical" not "spinning".

True gamers use Windows Vista, the beta version.

You misspelled windows 11^^

No one should still be using hardware from 2009 and SSD's are dirt cheap now.

Also, the way HDD is referred to is interchangeable. I have friends in IT that call them spinners, others call them hard disks. I refer to them as spinning disks because that's literally what they are. I can't stand the term mechanical.
