Most people would enjoy talking with you in English. Just smile, be friendly and tell them you are learning!
I can relate to your experience. My husband and I lived in Germany for a time and I was shy about using my language skills. Never was I shy about asking for food though! Loved those Nuremburg Brats!

I am a Urdu speaker just like you. I have seen many people with the same problem, and I always say to them: TRY, don't give up only because others laugh at you. Let them laugh, maybe they don't remember they were once the same.
I hope so you'll improve!

Try practicing it over with some of your friends until you get it down perfectly, and ask them if they can give you some advise as well.

Everybody makes mistakes. Don't be afraid! Most people will politely correct your mistakes (if you ask them to).

Windows is an operating system, you can't download it, you have to buy it. If your computer is working, it must have had an operating system installed, most new pcs have Windows pre-installed.

You can download many operating systems now however. Linux is one alternative.
