Hey Y’all,
With all the complaining about Win 11, 10, 8.1, etc. I thought I’d post what I think Windows needs…
- Windows tools like Task Scheduler, Disk Management, etc. that remember the last screen settings, i.e. window size, column widths, etc.
- All Windows tools should let the user adjust font size & face and remember the settings.
- Windows tools that don’t give you entry boxes that are large enough to see the whole (or at least most) of the entry, I’m talking about you Scheduled Tasks, so you can easily make changes in the right place within the command.
- While we’re on Task Manager how about the ability to turn on History for a single task, useful for debugging new tasks, vs on/off for every task which overloads the logs.
Ok, you get the drift, make the stuff that the OS should be doing more useful instead of thinking up all kinds of stuff that most of us don’t want or need but look good in the annual “look what we’ve done” PowerPoint presentations.
FYI: Microsoft if you haven’t figured it out yet all those bells and whistles you keep adding, usually copying work someone else has already done, should not be baked into an OS they should be addons, you know like the stuff you copied, NOT PART OF THE OS. And let’s not forget most of us will keep on using the stuff by the independent developers which is most often better, faster, and less error prone, than your “oh aren’t we inventive” knockoffs!
