And in the RC version of the common software compatibility test also has practical significance. Because many people are ready for Windows 7, unknown software compatibility makes them prohibitive for "moving" to Windows 7.

The test process is to first install and use four compression software on Windows 7 RC to test whether they can function on Windows 7 RC, and then copy the compressed package made on Windows 7 RC onto Windows XP for decompression. To detect the compatibility of file interactions between two operating systems.
Test results:
After testing, found that these four commonly used compression software can be installed on the Windows 7 RC Normal and use, and Windows 7 RC generated on the compression package on XP will not appear incompatible problems, no similar to Office 2007 and office 2003 from high to low incompatible embarrassment.
