15 features of Windows 7 (1)

1, keep your computer clean

If you share your computer with others, and you are afraid that they will mess with you Windows 7 can help you avoid these problems if you have computer settings and install some dangerous software on your computer.

With Windows 7, you can set up a "secure account" for other users who log in to your computer. This account allows them to log in and use the computer normally, but once they log out, the changes they make in your computer and the software installation will also collapse,

2, limit other users

If you feel that the above security measures are not enough, you can also use AppLocker. Like the software restriction strategy in XP and Vista, AppLocker is also embedded in Windows Server 2008 R2, which is simple to use and gives administrators more control over their capabilities. It is understood that administrators can use AppLocker in conjunction with Group Policy for the entire domain, or they can use this feature in conjunction with local security policies on a single machine.

3, Action Center (Action Center)

In Windows 7, Microsoft changed the "Security Center" in the previous Windows version into a multi-purpose "action center." At the same time, the Security Center has been integrated into a new action center. In addition to the original security settings, Action Center includes other options for managing tasks such as Backup, Troubleshooting And Diagnostics, and Windows Update.

4, low-key UAC (User Account Control)

UAC (User Account Control) is a concept introduced in Vista, designed to help users better protect system security and prevent Intrusion of malware. UAC runs all accounts (including administrator accounts) with standard account privileges. If some of the actions the user requires administrator privileges, you will need to request permission first. This mechanism has led to a large number of user complaints, and many users have chosen to turn off UAC, which in turn has exposed their systems to greater security risks.

In Windows 7, UAC still exists, but users have more choices. In the Action Center, users can perform four configurations for UAC:

*When the user installs the software or modifies the Windows system settings, the user is always reminded (same as the Vista system).

*When the user reminds the user when installing the software, the user is not reminded when modifying the Windows settings (current default settings).

* Remind the user when installing the software, but when the UAC security desktop is closed, the other areas of the desktop will not be invalid when prompted.

* Never remind users (not recommended)

5, BitLocker to go

Encryption will not only apply to hard drives, Windows 7 The version of BitLocker also protects data movement and loss from other devices (such as USB flash drives, etc.).

Right-click on the device in Explorer, select "Start BitLocker", then enter and confirm the password to protect your data.
