![]() ![]() I know customer service dies a LONG time ago, but this is just plain ridiculous! It's MY computer, not Microsoft's. We don't want live icons (blocky icons that look terrible) slowing down our start menu. We don't want to pay a yearly subscription to play solitare and minesweeper. We don't want to have our PC turned into a brick when the internet goes down. We don't want Windows going full-on tyrant and taking away our ability to control updates. We don't want your flat, lifeless GUI that looks like it was designed by a 3-year old. We don't want windowless apps (I always had to restart my PC any time a window-less app started, often without even my consent, because I couldn't figure out how to turn those gosh-aweful things off back during the year I tried to endure Windows 8.1 on my laptop - thankfully never my main PC!). Overall Opinion: Windows 10 is horrible! I hate it with a burning passion! (Thanksfully, I Googled how to disable GWX long before it malware-hijacked my computer like so many other pour souls who can't afford to have Windows 7 reinstalled.) Apparently, Microsoft doesn't care about giving desktop users an experience that is good for them. As of early January 2021 it's hard to perceive Microsoft's methods as any other than scam and the retail price of Windows 10 as price gauging. How little Microsoft thinks of it's customers get's clear when having a deeper look into Microsoft's over bloated and mostly text based support efforts. In fact, setting up custom folders within the Protected Folders option can lead to other essential functions failing, such as installing software, or playing games.Ĭons: Windows 10 is loaded with problems lurking under the surface, the most common unpleasant situations Windows 10 users encounter on a frequent basis, is probably related to the Windows 10 activation. The Protected Folder option would be interesting for enhanced tempering protection, but unfortunately doesn't work on all folders that a user might like to see protected. ![]() Pros: Microsoft managed to make Windows 10 more graphical appealing in compare to it's predecessors. ![]() Installing a new mouse cursor requires to make use of a bothersome Interface first introduced in Windows 98 Windows 10 Product keys are overprized and Microsoft doesn't offer anything of value in return for the vast amounts of user data that are collected through Windows 10 and the MS Edge browser including unique biometric user data that enables targeted ads far beyond a users home, office space, or school. Microsoft doesn't care to evolve the Windows 10 activation process and rather likes to fool it's users with arbitrary error codes that are subtle and often impossible to resolve without purchasing a new Windows 10 Product Key. ![]() On top Windows 10 allows Microsoft to collect and capitalize on all sorts of user data, but there is very little support coming from Microsoft in return. Overall Opinion: Upgrading, or replacing a single component of an existing computer very often causes Windows 10 to deactivate and require the user to buy a new Product Key from Microsoft, or one of their certified partners. ![]()
