Speaking of Windows XP, many netizens are familiar with it, and many netizens use it when they use computers for many times.

When Windows XP enters the market, it coincides with the popularity of PC in China. The operating system released in 2001 still exists in many computers. Many Chinese people call it the most classic Windows system, which does not seem to be too much.

Windows XP stopped updating in 2014. Today, Windows 10 has been released for more than four years, and now it has been updated to version 1903 (2019 update). Are you still using XP?

Two days ago, the editor helped a friend reinstall the old notebook system, but also need to install Windows XP, so I came into contact with this operating system, which has not been used for a long time, and I really have a lot of memories in mind.

So next, let's start with the installation and review the classic operating system Windows XP, which has been with the editor for several years. By contrast, Windows 10 1903.

In recent years, it is "Please pay attention to the flow of pictures", but now in the era of * traffic and optical fiber, it has become "you can watch as much as you like. You can also browse high-definition pictures."

Have you ever installed Windows XP by hand?

Compared with the installation process of Windows 98, the installation of Windows XP is very simple.

After the boot boot, you will enter the installation interface, but the XP installation process can only use the keyboard, not the mouse, while Windows 10 supports mouse operation.

After the partition is finished, the next step is to format the partition, and in Windows XP there is the less used FAT file system format, which has been eliminated because it does not support large partitions and large files.

When it comes to the installation of Windows XP, the editor has installed it hundreds of times, so that the product key is well memorized (more familiar with QY7TT-VJ7VG of Windows 98)

Editors use their own computers like the pure version of the installation, with the original Windows XP installation CD image for system installation, and then install a variety of hardware drivers and commonly used software, * * do a Ghost backup.

User configuration for Windows XP installation

When installed, Windows XP will ask the user whether to enable automatic updates and configure the network, while Windows 10 is already the default automatic update. There is also a privacy option in Windows10.

The familiar operation interface of blue sky and white cloud classic wallpaper

After installation, enter the classic operating interface, enter the eyes is the classic blue sky, white clouds and green grass scenery Bliss wallpaper, as well as the familiar start menu.

Windows XP's default desktop wallpaper is Bliss. The photo was taken in 1996 in Suo Norma County, California, USA, near the former site of Clover Stornetta (a dairy company) in the southern part of the Suo Norma Valley.

Bliss takes its name from the rolling green hills, blue sky, layered and curly white clouds of the place.

Two start menu modes

Windows XP's start menu has two modes, one is the new version of the style, in the start menu level interface does not directly display the installed program, but a bunch of function portals.

Another is the classic start menu style. Every time the editor installs the system, the operation is to change the start menu to the classic style, because the classic style does not have to be pressed again to enter the program list.

After Windows XP installation, the default desktop does not have icons, and the editor also needs * time to bring up my computer and other common icons, otherwise it is very inconvenient. The editor has never understood why Microsoft hides desktop icons by default.

A system that few people use to update what's in my computer.

In Windows XP my computer, there is a list of hard disk partitions and removable storage devices, as well as shared documents and my documents.

In Windows 10, "my computer" has become "this computer", and this computer also has more libraries and directory trees.

After the editor has installed Windows XP, another operation is to turn off the automatic update function, and then update the system manually on a regular basis.

The manual update operation of Windows XP is to enter the update interface of the web version, and then there is a genuine verification step, but at present, because the genuine verification page can no longer be opened, the newly installed system can no longer update the system in this way.

Have you ever used the classic upgrade page of ↑↑↑ Windows XP?

Microsoft is kind enough to put a high-risk vulnerability patch on Windows XP a few days ago, but it needs to be downloaded manually.

To the Windows10 system update operation has been mandatory, in the old version of Windows 10 even in many inappropriate circumstances, resulting in the interruption of users' work or games, causing users' dissatisfaction.

However, there is already a pause update function in the new version of Windows 10 and the ability to intelligently select the time period for system updates according to how users are using the computer.

A reinvented system, an old Internet Explorer browser.

The browser included in Windows XP is IE8, which is not supported by many websites, and there will be a certificate error when browsing the web, so you have to update the certificate manually.

System configuration utility

The system configuration Utility (MSConfig) is also a tool often used by editors, and it works well to manage self-starting programs.

In Windows10, the tool has been weakened and even startup management has been migrated to the task manager.

Task Manager

Speaking of task manager, under XP, editors often use it to find suspicious processes and close programs that can't respond, but later they all use ice blades.

With Windows 10, this tool has been greatly enhanced, with more resource usage information in the performance tab, GPU usage, power savings and other new content in the process details, and startup item management has been moved here.

The control center control board controls the overall situation.

The control panel of Windows XP is the place that really controls the overall situation, and all the system setting options are concentrated in this place.

On the other hand, under Windows 10, the two management modes of Windows setting and control panel are implemented, which makes it inconvenient for users to find the settings in these two places when they want to set up a certain system.
