THREE TYPES OF SOFTWARE
1. Operating System
2. Application Software
3. Programming Language
The three most common operating systems for personal computers are:
Each operating system's GUI has a different look and feel, so if you switch to a
different operating system, it may seem unfamiliar at first. However, modern
operating systems are designed to be easy to use, and most of the basic
principles are the same.
Before GUIs, computers had a command-line interface, which meant the user had to
type every single command to the computer, and the computer would only display
text.
Microsoft Windows

Microsoft created the Windows operating system in the mid-1980s. Over the
years, 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.

INTRODUCTION
Device Drivers
DRIVER
A driver or device driver is a software program that enables a specific
hardware device to work with a computer's operating system.
But most modern hardware is "plug and play" meaning the devices will
work without requiring driver installation. However, even if a hardware
device is recognized by the operating system, installing the correct
drivers may provide additional options and functionality for the device.
For example, most mice work automatically when they are connected to a PC.
However, installing the appropriate mouse driver may allow you to
customize the function of each button and adjust the mouse sensitivity.
Some keyboard drivers allow you to assign functions to specific keys,
such as controlling the volume or opening specific applications.
Application Software
You may have heard people talking about using an application or an app. But
what exactly does that mean? An application (or app) is a type of software that allows
you to perform specific tasks. Applications for desktop or laptop computers are
sometimes called desktop applications, and those for mobile devices are called mobile
apps. When you open an application, it runs inside the operating system until you close
it. Much of the time, you will have more than one application open at the same time,
and this is known as multitasking.
App is a very common term for an application, especially for simple applications
that can be downloaded cheaply or even for free. Many apps are also available for
mobile devices and even some TVs.
Three types of Application software
A. Desktop App is applications that run in a personal computer and laptops.
Types of Desktop Applications
There are countless desktop applications out there, and they fall into many
different categories. Some are more full-featured (like Microsoft Word), while others may
only do one or two things (like gadgets). Below are just a few types of applications that
you might use:
Word Processors: A word processor allows you to write a letter, design a flyer,
and create many other kinds of documents. The most well-known word processor
is Microsoft Word.
Personal Finance: Personal finance software, such as Quicken, allows you to
keep track of your income and expenses, create a budget, and more. Most
personal finance programs can automatically download information from your
bank, so you don't have to manually type in all of your transactions.
