Conclusion
The best example of System Software is the Operating system whereas, the examples of Application Software are Microsoft Office, Photoshop, etc
Where the System Software is general purpose software, the Application Software is a specific purpose software.
A system can not run without the System Software whereas, the Application Software is user-specific they are not required to run a system; they are meant only for the users.
The System Software starts running as the system is powered on and run until the system is powered off. The Application Software starts when the user starts it and stops when the user stops it.
System Software is designed to manage the system resources like memory management, process management, protection, and security, etc. and it also provides the platform for the application software to run. On the other hand, the Application Software is designed to meet the user requirements of performing specific tasks.
The System Software is written in a low-level language like assembly language. However, Application Software is written in a high-level language like Java, C++, Python, etc
