1. Is the windows 8 operating system has 'Cloud' programs/features in it? If so do these features require the user permission for privacy reasons? Which parts of Windows 8 uses cloud based computing so I know which to disable for my privacy.
2. Does Windows 8 require a sign in via a online account during every start up? For example online account such as Microsoft Live, Hotmail account etc.
3. Does Windows 8 have a system restore feature like in windows 7?
Thanks,
nb 1 : you can use skydrive which is a part of microsoft cloud to do this
nb 2 : Windows 8 can be accessed through a local account or an online account
nb 3 : yes , Windows 8 have a system restore and it also have a reset feature which allows you to return to its previous state
An extra note on question 3 is the "Refresh Windows" option. http://news.cnet.com/8301-1080.....our-data/#!
