Microsoft software is such fucking trash.

Why isn't there any option to reply all with attachments. Do you know how many times I need to send reminders, I WANT a response, making the receiver dig through emails means they are much less likely to respond. Sometimes I have to add someone on a reply and they don't have attachments, so now I have to send multiple emails.

How come the "force close" option was taken away when a program isn't responding? They left me with wait and restart. 9/10 times I want to close the fucking program.

How come when I drag and drop, emails, it doesn't give me a quick option to rename duplicates, super useful for when I need to pull email chain responses into a folder.

Don't get me started on removing ability to move taskbar on a horizontal screen. Side is the logical placement!

Serious anti-user garbage. Fire all of them and get people in there who know what they're doing.

    Windows peaked with XP and it's all downhill since then. Even Windows 7 was bloaty as hell compared to XP. But then again, the final version of Windows 7 is just Vista after two service packs, so there's only so much good you can do polishing a turd lol

      side taskbar is an abomination and it hurts me, but i support your right to be wrong and terrible, and it's not right that microsoft won't let you.

      There's a case to be made for maintaining Windows under a free software development model after the revolution. I still won't want to use it, but it will be required to run a lot of legacy systems and obscure hardware with non-free drivers.

        all drivers will be opened and made free. sigh

        but yeah, there's, like, under the hood windows has some cool features? but it's not usable.

          Prediction: after the revolution, there will be an open source community based on maintaining and improving Windows, and over time it will slowly transform into the same thing as Linux, while remaining obscenely popular with lay-users who will continue to believe things like "it's the only good OS for gaming!"

            20 years after the revolution, windows is abandonware that can't run on modern hardware so it has to be run inside a vm on a linux host. No games have been made for or ported to windows in 20 years so windows users have to run them in WSL. Gamer's still insist windows is the only good OS for games while running games in 3 layers of virtualization.

      I think valve already did that. Let's just metaphorically shoot out the Windows and throw it in the trash heap.

      Edit: I do not condone violence or fedposting.

    Don’t get me started on removing ability to move taskbar on a horizontal screen.

    Rightclick task bar>uncheck "lock the task bar">drag to desired position

    It looks like crap because it's 2 inches wide, yet icons are 1 per row and requires opening a menu to use the search function.
