Windows Pro Pack 8 Product Upgrade Medialess Win to Pro MC 32-bit/64-bit Eng Intl

If you are currently running Microsoft® Windows 8 on your PC or laptop and want to get even more from your operating system, then now is time to think about upgrading to the great value Windows Professional 8 version. This retail licence upgrades 1 PC from your current Windows 8 software to Windows 8 Pro, offering a much more connected, personal and accessible world to explore. Your laptop or tablet device will be ready to perform at its best with the professional pack's abundance of elevated features.

Built on the foundations of the highly popular Microsoft® Windows 7, Windows 8 Professional is about you, your preferences and the way you like to work. All of your favourites, assets and programs can be integrated online such as your social networks, email accounts and content from your personal computer. To access all of these applications instantaneously, simply place them on your Start screen to avoid wasting time. If you use a touch device then you're in luck because Windows 8 has been redesigned for this technology - but of course it still works fabulously with the traditional mouse!

You can work hard and play hard at the same time by running Microsoft® Office Word, PowerPoint, Excel and OneNote as well as your favourite TV programmes simultaneously. The Windows Media Center is your entertainment hub for all of your media files and content where you can also play and record high-definition TV, CD's and DVD's. On the more technical but important side of features, BitLocker drive encryption protects your important data on mobile computers with a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) chip. This all happens in the background so your productivity isn't deferred. Malicious sites and software can be extremely harmful without the right protection in place so the intelligent SmartScreen service protects you from these by checking the reputation of websites thoroughly to ensure no harm can be done to your computer or business network.

In addition to new security features, a new look and enhanced mobile productivity, IT administrators will be able to manage Windows desktops simply and efficiently with Windows PowerShell which offers easy configuration and deployment options. When you move to Windows 8 Professional you'll be able to access a lot more remotely with DirectAccess which allows you to access all of your resources inside of your business network with ease.

Windows Professional 8 is an intuitive package that is designed to let you take control; to do what you want, the way you want to. Within the pack you'll discover a new, exciting Windows experience and will be glad that you decided to upgrade. To use this media-less 32/64-bit Windows Professional 8 version you must be using a PC that has a 1 GHz processor, 2GB RAM and 20GB available hard disk space.
