This speed problem actually applies system wide with most things they've modernised.
#Rainmeter xyplorer windows
Windows 10's settings menu was cluttered and annoying to use, but at least it was fast. But when I click "Sound," there's a delay of about 1.5s which is terrible given I have an i7-10750H. For example, when I open settings, then click System, it's fine. That's what the browser is for, especially given it opens in browser anyway. I don't know why I would ever want to search the web for something using my start menu. It's only when I click on Folders that both of them show up. Please learn from Mac's spotlight search and the program 'Everything.' Those are how a search should feel.Īn example of how it still annoys me: If I search "370" (expecting folders from my uni paper MUS370 to show, there are 2 of them), it shows one of them as "best result," then gives me a bunch of Bing search suggestions. Search is faster/better, but it's still shit. It's also not drag and droppable between the taskbar and start which is clunky and unintuitive. There are only 18 slots available on the front page. Now it just gives me a calendar that does nothing.Ī useful start menu. It used to show what events were on that day and let me access them. Use Small Taskbar icons (to make the taskbar waste less screen space).Ĭlicking on the clock/calendar area showing a calendar that actually does something. If I have 5 instances of the same program open, why would I want to hover over it and click a bunch of visual previews. I refuse to, and many people think like me, and if you ever used macOS you would understand how design can make an OS feel incredibly polished (I don't like the macOS way of things tho, I prefer Windows, but I love how polished it is - win11 is getting there too) I didn't buy a beautiful custom desktop with a nice table, great 4K monitor, some plants and everything to look great for then to have a black sheep of a win98 style 7zip on my screen.

Having a great design is as important as having great functionality.

I'm glad Microsoft seems to be moving on from this "minimum viable product" philosophy like you have, that anything that works is good enough, because in 2021 having that way of thinking in software dev is just very retarded and unprofessional, childish.

7zip is excelent, but it's so damn ugly for today standards that it doesn't look professional at all and I refuse to have those icons on my win11 desktop. (Peazip is still ugly but much better than 7zip at least). I use peazip because I can't stand those win98 icons that 7zip puts on my file explorer.

If the whole OS looks modern and polished, and your app looks like windows 98, your app is the black sheep there, I don't care how good it works, most people will find it ugly and even avoid using it. You guys think anything that gets the job done is acceptable. There are devs inside Microsoft that think like you, sadly. People (especially developers) like you are the reason windows is a mess, has really unconsistent UI and ugly old apps still exist, like the fax and scan tool.
