Can't fault the book though. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Must Have for Anybody New to Windows 8!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2014* I recently purchased a custom built HP Quad Envy with Windows 8. I assumed I would be able to use it right out of the box without a problem as I had previously used Windows 7, Windows XP, Millennium and other previous versions. You know what they say about "Assuming." Well, I was shocked to see a very foreign screen with I later learned were tiles. Now, I have used a iPhone for a few years now, so, I knew a little about tiles, but I COULD NOT figure out how to even open anything on Windows 8. I bought this PC Laptop back in November 2013,but until recently only turned it on may 5 times for an hour long session to get to know the system, or at least try. Its not like instructions come with the PC, so you are on your own. I was so frustrated and really angry at Microsoft for shoving this newest version of Windows down my throat (still am.) About a month ago I turned the laptop on and was met with a notification that my laptop was updating and would be installing all updates including Windows 8.1. Now, I did not want Windows 8.1, heck I really did not want Windows 8, but was stuck with it. Unlike Windows 7 and its predecessors I was not able to stop or postpone the updates. So, the download of Windows 8.1 began. After about an hour my screen went black. The PC no longer worked. I had to send it back to HP and they had to replace the hard drive. So, 8.1 crashed my brand new shiny , expensive laptop. While waiting to get my laptop back, I found this book. Wish I could say I read it cover to cover, but this book is huge! It is well organized and written in a non-techie manner. Even the topics listed are things I wanted to know with step by step instructions on how to speak Windows 8. After I received my laptop back from HP, I researched in this book how to shut down automatic updates. After reading the instructions several times, I turned the PC on for the first time after the repair. I was able to get to the settings area on the PC and turn off automatic updates, allowing only those updates I choose. So far so good. I have actually figured out how to go on line, check files, print and download music on Windows 8 thanks to this book. I highly recommend this book and believe it should be included with any new PC purchased that uses the Windows 8 operating system. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smart book for dummies *by C***N on Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2012* This is a very good book for those who are looking to learn Windows 8 Pro. The book takes you from the very beginning with an excellent overview of the radical new operating system from Microsoft. It has a number of very funny illustrations and presents the material in an understandable step-by-step process. If you have an Amazon Kindle that is able to handle text-to-speech and you don't mind the mechanical voice. I recommend that you listen to the book with a pair of headphones and walked through the learning process with the author. By the time you finish the book you will have a well-founded and established foundation for understanding Windows 8 Pro. This may take several days to do so depending on how much time you have but it's worth it. You'll notice immediately that the author is not 100% sold on Windows 8 for everyone. But he does endorse giving it a try. I find that ironic considering that this is a 1000 page book. But I think you will enjoy him giving his assessment of both sides of the issues regarding whether I should upgrade now or wait till later.I have been using Windows 8 Pro since October 26 when it first became available to the public. I have encountered several issues regarding the Windows updates which are downloaded automatically. This is one major issue that Microsoft will have to address if it intends to make the transition from Windows 7 to Windows 8 a happy and smooth one for the majority who would like to upgrade. To be fair Microsoft is constantly updating and improving the software as you go. So, it is exciting to be a software guinea pig and to see how the new software is maturing. This same thing happened with Windows 7 premium. Since I purchased a new computer within the upgrade promotional. I was able to purchase Windows 8 Pro for for $14.99. This book is worth the price and is a good read. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1317008-windows-8-all-in-one-for-dummies](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1317008-windows-8-all-in-one-for-dummies) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
