Not my computer, me. I feel like I've gotten too old to upgrade from Windows 7. I downloaded Windows 8 and I just could not understand it at all. It was difficult, I'm too used to using the "Run" command to find applications and run them quickly, but the lack of a Start Menu was just throwing me off. Now, I'm well aware that in the coming years, Windows 7 is going to become very outdated, and will no longer receive security upgrades. I do anticipate some challenges regarding that. In that case, I need to know if there's a better OS I can upgrade to. Thanks.

Use Launchy to have a better "run" for applications.
Use Classic Start to work with a user-friendly start menu

Both programs can be easy installed by www.ninite.com

I have referred to Windows 10 in my profile signature, but yes, I have indeed, been metaphorically living under a rock. I started college, and I realized I don't want to pursue a career in computer science, and chose another math related field instead. In the process, I've fallen behind in terms of computer talk.

Windows 8 has the similar Run feature from 7, it is just slightly disguised.

To access the actual same one from Win7, just press:
Windows Key + R

To access the newer Win8 version, click on the Start button, then just start typing what you want to run. The search bar on the right will automatically make itself visible and attempt to quick-find what you are entering into the box.

If you need the old Start Bar back, there are several mods for Windows 8/8.1 that will bring back a classic start feel. Or you can upgrade to Windows 10 and allow Microsoft to know every little thing you do along with having a start bar back.

Windows 8 is of course difficult to use for a regular Windows 7 user. But, do not worry at all. You can try Windows 8.1 which can be used as similar as Windows 7.
