Yep, keep underlying invisible improvements of 10 like the kernel but ditch the whole UI and revert it back to Windows 7. It was peak Windows design (second is Windows Classic UI) and change for sake of change totally ruined it.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 5y agoAgreed. Whoever is working on the kernel and PowerShell at MS can stay, everyone working on Windows UX is fired. Preferably out of a cannon and into the sun.
- mwcampbell 5y ago> everyone working on Windows UX is fired. Preferably out of a cannon and into the sun. I was on the Windows accessibility team, which was under the shell org. Not everything that we did in Windows 10 was bad. The Narrator screen reader built into Windows 7 sucked (my former colleagues and managers agreed); we made that much better in Windows 10. I wouldn't want to go back to Windows being the only platform where the only good screen readers were the third-party ones, and those products had to use ugly hacks to make Windows accessible.
- UI_at_80x24 5y agoThis might be showing a difference in our age and/or when we were exposed to Windows UI, but I think the Windows UI peaked at Windows 2000. Crisp 2D with borders, separations, edges, UI elements were not hidden, obvious scroll bars, AND distinct colouring. As you referenced 'Classic Mode', it was VERY close to Win2k UI, but not the same.
