- The taskbar has a mind of its own, sometimes it'll fade when I watch a video, sometimes it won't - it's random.
Edge cases! But not a non-issue nonetheless.
- Cortana keeps asking me to ask her anything even while I'm not interested (Anyone remember bonzai buddy from the early 00's?)
Never had this issue, as I say below, doesn't mean it's not an issue.
- Backwards compatability for older games which which worked on Windows 7 no longer function despite having the same premise and system. I can no longer play my beloved Empire Earth even though I have the exact same backwards settings that I had on Windows 10
What compat settings are you using?
- Back to the taskbar again, it enjoys freezing and not allowing me to type into the search box about twice a day needing a restart
Never had this issue, nor any of our thousands of Windows 10 users at work. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist, but it means it's an edge case.
- Still feels like I should be using a touch screen rather than an actual M and K - and all the file locations, device areas and such are in the stupidest of places.
What do you mean they're in stupid places?
>Forget the NSA, now Microsoft is watching you masturbate
You mean like they do with every OS since Windows 7? This isn't a valid complaint when it's done on all their operating systems now.
>Half aborted mix between a touch-screen OS and a computer OS, includes a shitty app system that was broken day one, still doesn't work
I see almost no touch screen elements anymore except some buttons are larger. How is this any different to the rest of the technological ecosystem that's slowly changing to support touch-based operating systems? How do the applications not work? I have not had any issues with any Windows 10 apps I may have installed (however few they may be). No one is forcing you to use the UWP ecosystem.
>Probably the most important reason of all time. It doesn't run vidya games well
It doesn't run video games well? I saw a 10% to 20% increase in performance across the board. It's more performant and more secure. But by all means, remain on an OS that will lose its support permanently in 3 years and will stop receiving updates.
