As usual, updates were kept to a minimum, and the bulk of the set‑up work went into preparing the sample sets. For the purposes of this test we had to do little more than revive some images created for earlier comparatives, and update them with the latest testing tools and scripts. Setting up Windows 8.1 is a fairly clean and easy process, although anyone wanting to build multiple matching machines may be mystified by its rather random approach to disk partitioning. Therefore, we plough through the products available one more time to provide guidance for those in need. In itself, it's not a bad operating system, but in comparison with those either side, it has clearly failed to grab the attention and affection of users, and so is condemned to a slow and undignified death.įor those still tied to it for one reason or another, of course, it remains crucial to maintain a decent level of protection from malware. With the huge efforts being put into encouraging, cajoling and even tricking users into upgrading to Windows 10, and the bulk of the hold-outs being confirmed Windows 7 users, there seems little chance that we will be running another test on this platform. When first released with the standard hype and fanfare it seemed like another fairly major step in the gradual expansion and improvement of the world's most popular platform, but in hindsight it joins Windows Vista as another temporary stopgap, killing time between two much more popular and successful versions of Windows. The platform selected for this month's comparative is Microsoft's Windows 8.1. ThreatTrack VIPRE Internet Security Pro 2016
