The Windows 10 interface has become the standard for PCs, but you may prefer the look and feel of Windows 7. If you recently purchased a new computer or upgraded to Windows 10 and miss the old look, here's how to get the look of the Windows 7 interface on your Windows 10 computer.

Microsoft’s virtual assistant is an integral part of Windows 10, designed to make everyday tasks easier. Cortana wasn’t in Windows 7, so you may want to hide it from the taskbar.

To hide Cortana, right-click an empty space on the Windows taskbar at the bottom of your screen and select Show Cortana button if there is a check mark next to it.

Also found on the taskbar, the Task View button shows all open windows in a slimmed-down, tiled format. This button was not part of Windows 7. To hide it, right-click on the taskbar and select Show Task View button to remove the checkmark.
