- cm2187 10y agoYeah but Microsoft should have catch the start menu hang plaguing windows 10 recently before it goes into production. And I am not sure that "everyone else does it" is a good reason. Everyone else does nagging. Apple nags again and again for its icloud, apple pay, apple music, etc. I get some nagging for using instagram all over my facebook feed. Microsofts nags me for using edge, onedrive, etc. But "the others do it too" doesn't make a good product.
