Microsoft has promised that his new system would be far more superior than previous versions. Of the various inputs which so far has been frequently asked by users, the improvement is expected by users ranging from small repairs, improvements are, up to a big improvement. Even some people expect Microsoft to make a revolution against the new system later on, not just repairs.Minor repairs are expected to include a variety of uses default programs, such as Windows Explorer, WordPad, and Notepad, and Paint. These programs are heavily criticized because there is no improvement even since MS Windows 95. In Explorer, if users copy multiple files to another folder or drive, and one file was damaged, then the copying process will stop. In fact there should be an option to continue the rest of the existing file. Files that fail copied made his list, so it can be treated further, for example with the utility programs that have been widely circulated. Also, setting the folder view should also be made easier, both settings globally to all folders, as well as local settings for a particular folder, because it is different, there is a special picture, there is music, there are numbers, and so forth.
Selection of text and color in WordPad, Paint, Notepad moreover, was still very primitive. Even in the Paint program, there is no possibility to select objects that have been done edited, let alone select multiple objects, it is not possible. That is why not many users who utilize these programs. They prefer programs from third parties, a far more sophisticated and most importantly, free.
Apart from minor improvements, there are improvements being awaited by the users of Windows, like Windows Media Player that can play various multimedia files consisting of images, presentations, music, sound recordings, and video. During this WMP requires many additional file (called a codec) to be able to play different types of videos, such as 3GP, AVI, MP4, up to DVD. Even now there is Blueray and HD-DVD. Though each type of video, there are many more versions. Should WMP program is smart enough to ask the user to find the codec.
Another improvement is the availability of lightweight spreadsheet program, at least not to replace the calculator program, as any sophisticated calculator, still not informative for users. Especially if it involves a lot of items, such as a shopping list or creating a list of honorariums. If you use a calculator program is too complicated, if you use Excel too big and not free. Hence, a simple spreadsheet program with 1000 rows and 100 columns were already more than enough.
Improvements are also expected by the user is the ability to connect to the Internet is not just a browser with multi-tab, but also at the same connection to a variety of communications such as chat programs, email, blogs, and social networking. If necessary also to various online file storage such as 4 * shared.com, zid * du.com and so forth. Currently such storage media that is familiar to computer users who want to share files.
In short, for these improvements is, Microsoft can learn from a variety of programs created by third parties, both free and commercial. Look at the music player such as WinAmp which has become rampant. Similarly, the ability to compress files such as WinZip and WinRar, should have become an internal facility OS made by Microsoft.
In addition to small and medium repairs, users expect any major improvements made by Microsoft. Today Microsoft has announced at least two new capabilities that will be owned by Windows 8, namely improvements to BranchCache and Distributed File System Replication (DFSR abbreviated).
BranchCache is the ability to access files from the intranet and make a copy locally, so the program can work faster. It is this requires a large storage capacity, but Microsoft is not worried, yet now the hard drive capacity is unusually large at a price that is relatively inexpensive. This capability was introduced in Windows 7, but it would be much enhanced capabilities in Windows 8.
New capabilities that will be characteristic of Windows 8 is DFSR, namely the ability to synchronize the contents of a folder or equation-based multiplatform. Windows 8 promised to communicate easily with the various servers that use different OS. Windows 8 has the ability to synchronize the contents of a folder on another server, for example in branch offices, with the central office.
DFSR is estimated to save WAN bandwidth by 80% through differential compression On-The-Wire. At the present time, many application programs that require very large amounts of data, not just gigabytes, but had begun to touch terabytes, the need for communication paths become increasingly crucial. Not only big companies, even individual users were already used to download application programs and movies from the Internet in tens of gigabytes in a day. With the technology now exists, need an intranet and Internet network connection will be very expensive. Microsoft saw this gap needs file sharing by introducing DFSR is expected to save up to 80% normal and it will be very significant for companies in the present.
