Operating system (OS) manages all the software and hardware on the computer. Most of the
time, there are several different computer programs running at the same time, and they all
need to access your computer's central processing unit (CPU), memory, and storage. The
operating system coordinates all of this to make sure each program gets what it needs.

Functions of Operating system: -

1. Memory Management
It is the management of the main or primary memory. Whatever program is executed, it has to
be present in the main memory. Therefore, there can be more than one program present at a
time. Hence, it is required to manage the memory.
The operating system:
 Allocates and deallocates the memory.
 Keeps a record of which part of primary memory is used by whom and how much.
 Distributes the memory while multiprocessing.

2. Processor Management/Scheduling
When more than one process runs on the system the OS decides how and when a process will
use the CPU. Hence, the name is also CPU Scheduling. The OS:

 Allocates and deallocates processor to the processes.


 Keeps record of CPU status.

3. Device Management
The processes may require devices for their use. This management is done by the OS. The OS:

 Allocates and deallocates devices to different processes.


 Keep records of the devices.
 Decides which process can use which device for how much time.
4. File Management
The files on a system are stored in different directories. The OS:
 keeps records of the status and locations of files.
 Allocates and deallocates resources.
5. Security
The OS keeps the system and programs safe and secure through authentication.
A user id and password decide the authenticity.

6. Other Functions
Some of the other functions of the OS can be:
 Error Detection
 Keeping a record of system performance
 Communication between different software etc.

Microsoft Windows
Microsoft created the Windows operating system in the mid-1980s. There have been many
different versions of Windows, but the most recent ones are Windows 10 (released in
2015), Windows 8 (2012), Windows 7 (2009), and Windows Vista (2007). Windows comes pre-
loaded on most new PCs, which helps to make it the most popular operating system in the
world.
