I think the “files are where you left them” dialogue is meant to assuage the concerns of people who just did a big OS upgrade and are a bit anxious about it all.
It’s still a pretty poorly thought out dialogue, though.
- Arch-TK 4y agoYou know what reassures me that nothing has gone wrong? When unexpectedly I am greeted with big white text insisting everything is okay. Imagine if you got a letter through the post out of the blue saying "You don't have cancer." I can only imagine how I would probably suddenly be a lot more worried about having cancer than before having gotten that letter. Whoever came up with that idiotic dialogue is unhinged and detached from reality and has no business touching a user interface.
