By default, telnet is not enabled on Windows 7 due to insecure connection security concern.
In order to enable and install Telnet in Windows 7, the steps are easy, and similar to procedures to turn on and enable Telnet in Windows Vista:
* Open Control Panel.
* Go to Programs or Programs and Features.
* Click Turn Windows features on or off.
* In the “Windows Features” dialog box, select (tick) the Telnet Client check box.
* Click OK.
* After installation is done, Telnet can be used and called immediately.
