System Software

                  System software  supervises and  controls all activities of a computer  system,
                  functioning as the manager of the computer.

                  The primary role of system software is to prepare the computer for use and to run
                  application software. The operating system is an example of system software.

                  Microsoft Windows is the most popular operating system available today. It has
                  different versions, like Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8,
                  Windows 10 and Windows 11.




















                  System software is a very important part of a computer system. Without system
                  software, the computer is like a car without a driver.

                  Application Software

                  Application software is used to perform a specific task.

                  For example, you can draw and colour pictures in Paint software, but you cannot
                  play a movie or a song in it.

                  To play  a song,  you need  to  use Windows Media Player,  which  is a  software
                  specifically designed for playing audio and video files.

                  Hence, Paint and Windows Media Player are examples of application software,
                  but both are used for different tasks.
