Experience the powerful combination of innovation, performance, and productivity

We listened to business customers just like you to find out what you needed from your PCs. We heard loud and clear: performance, ease of use, and security. Designed to meet the needs of small and midsize businesses, the Windows® 7 Professional operating system delivers a powerful combination of innovation, improved performance, and productivity. It simply works the way you want-helping you focus on what matters most-your business.

Here's a quick overview of key benefits you’ll see.

"Speed, reliability, and compatibility—these are my absolute must-haves."

Responsive and ready—you can start using your PC quickly with fast start-up, shutdown, sleep, and resume from Standby.
Performance improvements lead to fewer interruptions and prompts, as well as faster recovery from problems when they happen.
Designed with compatibility in mind, it works with a broad set of devices and applications. In addition, it can also extend the life of your older Windows XP productivity applications with a valuable transition tool, Windows XP Mode,* which runs on your Windows 7 PC.

"I just need things to be easy, so I can get more done each day."

Finding things is efficient and easy: Type a few letters in the search box, and files, applications, or even menus appear in seconds.
Mobile computing on the go is easier with access to all mobile settings in one place as well as greater connection and networking options.
Access all your computer programs, files, and network resources. Whether at work, at home, or on the road, you can now easily connect to other networks or even other computers within your home.

"Safeguarding my business is critical. I need to make sure all my information is backed up, protected, and highly secure."

Quickly restore previous versions of files or folders that you accidentally delete or change.
Better protect your confidential information with powerful encryption technologies that let you encrypt your files and folders.
Help keep your business up and running with enhanced protection from Internet threats, spyware, and other forms of malicious software.
