Windows 8 Developer Preview, since its launch on 13th September, 2011, created so much hype among Windows users. Its unique interface adopted from Windows Phone UI, Metro UI, gives a new and attractive look to the existing Windows interface. We have previously in our article described Windows 8’s features and future promises. As the early release of Windows 8 is only a developer preview just for testing purpose, many of us could not continue it for very long time because of some limitations.
To giving you a permanent look and feel of Metro UI in your existing Windows 7 we are featuring an amazing app which will convert your Older Windows interface into new Windows 8 Metro UI. This app aka Metro 7 is absolutely free for use and supports all versions of Windows 7 i.e. Home, Premium, Ultimate, Professional etc. Just follow the following 4 steps to redesign your Windows 7 –
-
- 1. Download the software from here.
-
- 2. Install (you need to have Microsoft .net framework 4 into your computer) the application and start it and you will be presented with a tiled interface but not the desktop.
-
- 3. Click on the arrow resides at upper right corner of the screen to setup your settings and options, it will help you out to pin your programs and favorite websites to the tile screen though built-in apps are very minimal but you can experiment yourself.
- 4. You can rearrange the tiles with dragging them and to remove them just drag the desired tile to the bottom of the screen.
Metro 7 app is in beta version and doesn’t come with the perfection but it gives you a glimpse of Metro UI of upcoming Windows 8 and helps you out to taste it before the launch of official Windows 8. This app is not from Microsoft, just changes the look and feel of your windows 7 interface, you can revert these changes anytime via uninstalling this app.
