    I use Windows XP. It is the best operating system ever made, and will forever be.

    My favorite windows operating system of all time is Windows 7. I have two desktops, an older one with Win7, and a newer build with Win 10 because some of the newer hardware doesn't support Win7. I was able to tweak Win 10 to the point where it's virtually indistinguishable from Windows 7, so I'm comfortable with it. I have a laptop I purchased for occasions when I'm away and it has Windows 11 which I'm not fond of at all, but it was the only option available to me at the time and I needed a laptop.

    The downside to win 7 is it's no where near customizable as xp was other than that win 7 is champ, everything is where it needs to be once that tile menu is got rid of with classicshell

    What menu in Win 7 uses tiles? I see what it is in Win 8 but have never seen that in Win 7. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough.

    Tiles were first introduced in Windows 8, which is partly the reason a lot of people refused to leave Windows 7 behind.

    I misunder stood "everything..........................classicshell." I thought you were talking about Win 7. My mistake.
