I don’t have Windows for years, but Schadenfreude is making me oddly amused with the current changes.
[Title]
Preloading will not solve bad performance. It will not reduce the amount of resources (CPU cycles, RAM) the program requires. It’ll only make the program start before the user asked it to, so some muppets blame their machines instead of their crapware OS.
Bad performance means the program is either doing too much, or doing it inefficiently. Given how excited MS is with AI (unlike its users), it’s likely a mix of both - “vibe coded” slop + pointlessly running some model. The bullet points highlighting how they’re moving options back and forth also stink like they added the kitchen sink to File Explorer.
You can access Xbox full screen experience from Task View, Game Bar settings, or use Win + F11 hotkey to toggle FSE.
- I’m surprised Windows has multiple desktops now. This has been the default across Linux DEs for years.
- They’re putting this crap there??? Pffffft. Then don’t be surprised if users don’t find it.
Point-in-time restore for Windows
I’m checking the documentation. Ctrl+F “folder”, nothing; “partition”, nothing. Then I casually glanced at it.
If I got this right, you can enable or disable the restore system; but you can’t tell it which folders and/or partitions it ignore. If that’s the case holy shit, might as well disable it and use a third party backup system.
Based on user feedback, we have added support for uninstalling Store-managed apps from the Store’s library page.
As another user here highlighted (and I agree with it), this shit is obvious.
If you need user feedback to know it, might as well ask users if you should go to work.
Hopefully the ads in explorer load faster now.
It says a lot that I’m not absolutely certain you’re joking about that.
So then you wouldn’t be surprised to learn, not: https://techraptor.net/technology/news/windows-10-now-shows-onedrive-ads-in-file-explorer
Based on user feedback, we have added support for uninstalling Store-managed apps from the Store’s library page.
They needed user feedback to help them figure out that an app that installs software should also be able to uninstall it?
Amazing.
Linux plug.
If you wanna switch I, and half the people here, can help you. HMU.
