Genuine Windows farewell "boxed version"

Remember the rectangular box with the Microsoft logo? This will be a past tense. Yesterday, Microsoft held a press conference and said that since October, Microsoft has stopped selling Windows systems in China in the form of “storage media”. Therefore, the only way to purchase genuine Windows in the Chinese market is to pre-install Windows on a new PC, and existing PCs can be downloaded from the Microsoft website. In the future, Windows, CD, DVD or U disk format, Windows, third-party installation of Windows, will be directly judged as pirated. A market-oriented survey by Microsoft shows that the piracy is still grim. The report shows that PC brands that have been installed with pirated Windows and detected malware are widely involved, including Acer, Asus, Dell, Founder, Shenzhou, Qixi, HP, Lenovo and Tsinghua Tongfang. famous brand. However, Microsoft believes that pirated software image files and malware are not installed by or installed by PC manufacturers, and are more likely to be installed by individuals or downstream supply chains and channels. However, in Microsoft's sample survey, the huge risks posed by pirated software have not been sufficiently recognized by consumers. In computers with pirated Windows, 91% of PCs detected tampering with default security settings or other security holes. Huo Jinjie, general manager of International Data Corporation China, said that pirated software infections caused infected companies to have an average of four security incidents per year, and each incident could cause economic losses of up to $100,000. To this end, Microsoft has to go on the anti-piracy in China, "hands-on".
