In this post, I will guide you on how to activate windows 8/8.1 A couple of people suggest Windows 8 (or 8.1) isn’t a Windows 7 patch, but I don’t think so. Perhaps the Metro user interface is more difficult to use than the conventional Start menu, and you’ll have to spend hours to get things rolling. There is no doubt, though, that Windows 8/8.1 displays excellent results against earlier versions of Windows. Reduction of startup time is the easiest thing to see.
