    Guys, we all need to be objective. Our appeal to Windows XP is really nothing else but nostalgia. XP was horrible when you look back at it - it was extremely unstable, had little to no inbuilt security and was very vulnerable to attacks, would randomly crash and BSOD. It was a very unreliable OS. Not to mention it would slow down VERY VISIBLY after some time of use. Windows 10, as much as it has controversy surrounding it, is superior in every way - much faster, snappy, boot times are not as painful as XP, the inbuilt security is actually sufficient enough that you don't even need external anti-virus, and much more convenient (the search feature fucking works at least)

    • @vladimirstanescu6616
      @vladimirstanescu6616 5 років тому

      With the right resources and minimum maintenance, XP it's much faster,
      much more reliable and much more stable than the bugfest/commercial
      platform called Windows 10, a system designed for secretaries, for
      people who mostly use it as a typwriter or to watch UA-cam clips (they
      have their smarter-than-them phones for Feces-de-Bouc and other crap
      "social" networks). I'm using it right now and never had any "security"
      issues. Of course, I have Avast Antivirus Free and Avast Online
      Security. There are also other security companies that will continue
      their support for XP, in spite of the Microsoft bullying the world to
      move over to their neverending updating spyware. Windows 10 represents
      the Microsoft policy to adapt to an ever decreasing IQ consumer level:
      "We know better what's good for you, even if our new solution is crap."

    - I didn't understand what you said about XP x64. It exists. And I recently read online (an old post) that x64 SP2 is equivalent to x86 SP3, because both were based on Server 2003.
    - For productivity, OpenOffice or LibreOffice are better generally. I recommend open-source software for older computers, and in general. And VLC Media Player for a media player.
    - For newer things like Blu-ray, you're fucked. There is none. Unless you get lucky and find a hack online that works.
    - The only reason to keep using XP is older games' compatibility. And even then, NETWORK ACCESS SHOULD BE COMPLETELY DISABLED for security reasons! Use a secondary computer to download/scan the files, then use whatever methods you want to transfer them over. Otherwise XP is useless in its current time.
    - OH, and be sure to use a theme patcher for installing custom themes! There are too many to know. DeviantArt is a great site to find them. Also look for "Vista/7/10 Customization/Visualizer/Visualization Pack"s. And sound themes, wallpapers, login screens, start screens, and so on!

    A sto se tice office'a i drugih drangulija od programa nije bas da sad novije verzije imaju toliko novih stvari da moram imati moderniji OS da bi ih koristio potpuna glupost, od 8'ce primetio sam da je kompatibilnost veoma smanjena(upropascena) i to naravno se odnosi i za 10'ku ali sta da se radi
