1. Security Issues
Microsoft has repeatedly stated that Windows 8 is by far the most secure version of its operating system. But what if this is wrong? If Windows 8 does not provide a high level of security to protect consumers and business users, it will be difficult to attract users.
2. Bad tablet experience
Microsoft launched the Surface tablet. This tablet will be the standard for judging other Windows 8 products. If Surface is popular, Windows 8 will do a good job on other tablets as well. If the Surface tablet offers a lower level experience, Windows 8 will be in trouble.
3. Delay
Although Microsoft is very clever to decide not to mention when Windows 8 will be launched, Microsoft has indicated that Windows 8 will be launched this fall. However, if you delay, real trouble will arise. Hardware OEMs and consumers (especially enterprise users) don't like delays. The delayed release of Windows 8 may also delay the shipment of new PCs. This will give PC buyers some time to consider buying alternatives to Windows, such as Apple Mac computers.
4. Cougar continues to be popular
With Apple preparing to launch Mac OS, the Cougar operating system, no one in this market does not think this operating system will succeed. Because of this success, Apple's operating system will hit Microsoft's Windows 8. If Microsoft's main competitors are attracting users' attention, how can Windows 8 expect to withstand this pressure?
5. Desktop computers continue to decline
Most research companies say desktop computers will be eliminated. Of course, desktop computers won't be eliminated soon. However, the large growth rate of desktop computer shipments has declined. Laptops and ultrabooks are replacing desktops. Even tablets are hurting the sales of desktop computers. If desktop sales decline sharply, sales of Windows 8 will suffer. According to some analysts, this is not impossible.
6. Poor Ultrabooks
Ultrabooks are ultra-thin and ultra-light notebooks designed for mobile users that may significantly improve the Windows ecosystem's position to compete with Apple MacBook Air and iPad tablets. . However, if prices stay high and demand becomes weak, Windows 8 will be in serious trouble.
7. Apple's iPad Initiative
Apple's iPad may be a product that has a major impact on Windows 8. However, this issue is often overlooked when discussing Windows 8. The iPad is the main competitor of Microsoft's latest Surface tablet, and people will judge Microsoft's tablet based on the iPad. If the iPad damages the sale of Surface, the application of Windows 8 will be sluggish.
8. Microsoft strives to diversify
For many years, Microsoft's focus has always been on PC operating systems and applications. However, in the past 10 years, Microsoft has diversified by developing everything from human media players to video game consoles. This hurts Windows Vista. If Microsoft doesn't focus on the most important tasks at hand, it will hurt Windows 8.
9. Enterprises don't want to upgrade
As Microsoft is very clear, companies are not very eager to upgrade. To the latest and best products. Instead, companies need time to determine if a particular product is right for their future. Although the use of Windows 8 is expected, the sluggish economy will still affect the business, and it is unclear when the frozen spending will begin to unfreeze. If this takes longer than people expected, Windows 8 applications will encounter some problems.
10. Windows 7
Windows 7 is a very popular product. In fact, Windows 7 is Microsoft's most popular offering in the life of this software. With this in mind, how can Windows 8 applications not be affected? Indeed, Windows 8 is a better operating system (at least on paper). However, for many people, this is not important. Windows 7 is a known high quality operating system. As Windows XP users do when Microsoft introduced Windows Vista, many users in the home and business will take a long time to upgrade. This may be true, even though Windows 8 is much better than Vista and a big step forward than Windows 7.
