So they moved the icons on the taskbar, ruined the maximize button, improved(maybe) the awful existing launch menu, curved the window manager and changed the number.
The only thing I see that’s unique to them, and not just copied from other desktop UI’s, is the ruination of the maximise button. 🤷♂️

I dont get it either, they promised Windows 10 will stay as a service and wont be replaced by a new os, and now this version seems like a Windows 10 summer update more than a new version. Maybe there is more under the hood, but I doubt startup and shutdown times or basic peformance will be affected by this build.
That said, I love new versions of stuff 😀

I think they started to fuck up when they added that blue menu with the varied sizes of buttons and drop downs, and then the buried network and system settings… or was it the system registry? No I think it was probably the binary compiled files … it’s just a horrible system IMO.

Ok, so this might be a hint on why replace v10: [https://appriver.com/blog/201706windows-10-source-code-leak-hackers-get-powerful-new-tool](https://appriver.com/blog/201706windows-10-source-code-leak-hackers-get-powerful-new-tool)

^^ Security through obscurity has always been a fools errand.

Been on Beta channel, not bad, nothing is broken
some luddites will cry about the start menu
My only complaint is I rather have taskbar at top, center or left makes no difference to me
