    Sergey Tkachenko has created a port of this program that runs on Windows 8 versions, and also runs on Windows 10 (I've used it repeatedly on various test systems running the technical and insider previews). Find it online at Downloads / Software / Winaero WEI Tool. No biggie!

    I know a lot of people will argue that they used WEI a lot, but not from MS's point of view. MS's point of view revolves around the purpose of WEI. WEI was a marketing tool to help drive people to the Windows Marketplace, which almost nobody used. The idea was that you could get a WEI score and then go to the marketplace and buy software that your WEI could handle.

    So, since nobody was using the Windows Marketplace, the purpose of the WEI... WEI is "not being used", at least for the purpose they intended it to be used for.

    What I dont understand is why Graphics and Desktop Graphics have different ratings, I thought graphics was graphics.

    In short it only has to do with Microsoft products and nothing to do with how good your PC is.

    You're welcome. I used to wonder too, what the difference was back in Windows 7, and why there could be such a large difference.

    I only ever ran it because of the prompt on the System page. I do believe there were some graphics functions locked out or unavailable in Windows 7 until you ran WEI? It's not something I'll ever miss.

    I might have used it a few times but I don't know if I would use it today or in the future.

    I have used it just mostly just out of curiosity. For me it's not a must have.

    It isnt something that I want, need, use or understand fully. For us "not so well informed" it just throws up confusion.
