    This 100%

    Windows is in a permanent state of shitification, it feels to be like they have sales driving development. Every year Windows applications make more and more stupid fucking decisions with how stuff functions. You can’t target a specific folder to save a word doc without 5 clicks to get to the fucking file explorer. You now left click to fix spelling instead of right click in outlook. None of this shit makes sense. They keep fucking around with how stuff operates for seemingly no rhyme or reason and all it’s doing is pissing off seasoned users. I know the devs aren’t this fucking brain dead which is how I get to “sales must be driving” mentality. Because sales people tend the be the worst fucking people to make decisions on shit,they’re good at charming people, they should stick to that.

      Agreed.

      I could not give any fucks if they want to cram this shit into the crap home version. I don’t use it and anyone who does, probably would rather have a more inexpensive version that’s been subsidized by all the crap they’ve piled into the OS. Sure. Whatever.

      But this crap is present in the professional, and enterprise versions, this shit still persists. Like, these are versions that are twice or three times as expensive and still, full of shit; just as bad as the cheap home version.

      Unacceptable.

      The constant stupid UI changes are just icing on this shit filled cake. Why are we moving everything around? Sure, you want to create a less “ugly” control panel, ok that’s fine, but why the fuck did you make it borderline impossible to do something as simple as change your network IP address? I don’t even try anymore, I just go find the og control panel and load up network and sharing center or something. If you’re going to change it, at least make it as functional as the old one, or don’t fucking do it at all.
