The best Windows Version ever. After Windows 7, the subsequent versions seem to have aged backward.😢

[megorra]

I still use Windows 7. I think the newer operating systems are ugly, non-intuitive and harder to navigate. Mine does all I need it to do without having to have everything bang up to date. Win 10 and 11 are both awful to use in every way, in my opinion.

As long as CPUs and UEFI keep having security holes most home users will never be safe no matter how many Windows Updates and new versions of Windows u install

[prithvi]

What Windows 7 users imply when they say they are fans is that they want to see the ease of UI & usability of this in the next OS's like Windows 10, 11. I can't disagree with that AT ALL.

Win 7? Still using DOS 6.22 here!! Works great.

Windows 7 sluggish? Woah there thats a lie, come on, windows 7 uses about 35 to 38 processes to do anything modern you like while windows 10 is using more than 100 processes so i dont see in any world how a system that runs 62 less processes or more can be slower than 10, and windows 7 doesnt use the turbo feature that 10 has already if 7 had the turbo mode enabled not only would been crazy faster but already without the turbo it surpases 10. Windows 10 uses fast boot 7 doesnt, if 7 had the same thing it would won, try and set windows 10 without fast startup, 7 cant be slower cause by having less processes running on the system also the network load on your connection is lower disk usage cpu gpu everything when i installed 7 on my 10 pc, it was nasa level fast less than a second everything opens and loads, so no Windows 7 is the fastest modern Os, from windows operating systems.

Win 7 was by far my favorite version from Microsoft. Then they forced my machine to update to Win 10, and I hated everything about it. In Win 7 I could control which updates I would or would not install, and the MS telemetry was minimal. With 10 and even more with 11, MS was collecting information on which app I was using and how often, etc. For me that was the last straw, so I reinstalled Windows 7, replaced Explorer with Firefox, replaced Office with LibreOffice, and disconnected my machine from all Internet traffic, so I can occasionally use some very specialized video editing apps such as object removal. Anyway, aside from my one Windows computer, my entire family now uses Linux. In particular, my favorite distro is Kubuntu KDE Plasma, which I consider even more superior to Windows 7, as it is Windows the way it should have been, plus it is free and without any spyware.

Gaming on windows 7 is way better than windows 10 an 11

[US_Joe]

I still use my HP Win7 laptop as a media center with apps no longer supported, including legacy games that are not emulated. No online stuff ever. G'day Mate 👍👍👍

[airesuk]

I have two computers.. never thought I'd ever say that.. one of them has Windows 10.. I still have my computer with Windows 7.. I'll never get rid of it.. and you can't make me.

[musicmat]

Windows 7 is the best but in my experience Windows 10, and 11 are crap!

[syamillim]

My solution is simple. Once Windows 10 out of support, i will migrate to linux system and ditch Windows 11 completely. No more Windows OS.

[kevinsahm]

uh you have it all wrong use legacy updates and let it do all the work installing updates. No need to use edgw we now have supermium web browser which is a current chromium based browser that is always updated to the latest version.There is also now an extended kernewl for 7 that lets us use the latest firefox on 7. My computer is from 2012 and its not slow at all running windows 7.

[TheForce_Productions]

I think the ONLY thing Windows 7 is lacking regarding all later versions is the Dark Theme, which indeed keeps incomplete still in Windoww 10.

[ddruckmu]

I have 6 laptops running win7, no problem and will continue until I can't. Yes I have win 11 laptop, I am old IT guy, started on win 3.0 till retirement with win 10. I do not actually ever install win 7 just image the drives from a master. In my experience, it is not any slower then 11 the way I use it. Mostly use is internet, old software and older games. Have not used antivirus for more then 10 years, so far nailed everything coming in, but that was part of my job so my situation is different, not much impressed with any newer antivirus software, great for slowing computers down.

Good video. I did a lot of testing and integrating updates offline via DISM many years ago. Getting windows 7 fully updated was tricky because there were certain updates that had to be installed first and in the right order before the rest of the updates. I mean to remember it was around 150 updates in total to get it fully up to date back then. In windows 8.1 it was even worse, there were around 270 updates, nowadays it is probably around 320 updates to get it fully up to date. Have done the same with Windows Vista with SP2 but don't remember how many updates it took to get it fully up to date. The purpose of this testing was to have windows as fully updated as possible after installation.

[resonate]

I am still using Win7. I do agree with the slowness but Windows 11 is ransomware and the hardware requirements are absolutely nuts

[davie_mcc.]

When i last reinstalled Win 7 2 years ago i made a point of cloning it onto another hard drive for safe keeping so i dont need to go through the update hoops again if i needed to start over.

[lukutiss]

My experience with speed is completely counter to yours- I have a computer with a Windows 7 partition and a Windows 10 partition. Identical hardware, and yet Windows 7 is probably 2-3x faster across the board. I never feel like I'm waiting for my computer to do something when I'm on 7.

[FlyboyHelosim]

I still use Windows 7 and in fact just a couple of weeks ago did a full clean installation after years of no issues to see what the experience was like these days on my daily driver. It's nowhere near as much hassle as portrayed in this video. I am using rather high-end Windows 7 era specific hardware though, and I do have all my Windows 7 programs and complementary software saved offline for easy access. All my updates are done through Simplix UpdatePack 7, which works completely offline and took me just half an hour to update to the latest version from a clean installation. The whole process from installing Windows, updating it, and installing all my drivers took less than 2 hours. My system boots in just seconds, and that's with an extended POST process due to an onboard RAID controller. It's honestly never been easier and is actually a faster and more seamless experience than at the height of Windows 7's success. These tech YouTubers don't have a clue!
