They've known since all their other shitty windows. It's been ass since xp

I liked Win 7 and am still liking Win 10. That Win XP nostalgia isn't up to date anymore.

Best comment ever

[-] cubedsteaks@lemmy.today 3 points 1 year ago

speak for yourself. I love XP and I'm super into vaporwave which has a huge following for nostalgia of that era.

[-] Zacryon@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

Have fun. As long as you don't claim that XP is better than 7 or 10 you won't hear me complaining.

[-] cubedsteaks@lemmy.today 1 points 1 year ago

I mean 10 is what I have now. It's pretty mid. But I agree, 7 was pure garbage lol

Yeah win7 is good, but god damn, I have windows 11 on my work laptop, FML. Are they just trying to turn it into the Mac os? Whyyyyyy, what have they done. I use to have to click multiple buttons just to do the normal right click properties. They fixed that, but I still can't stand it. I remember back when they released one of them after 7, doing everything to disable all the crazy services. Havnt bothered messing with that again though.

[-] Zacryon@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

Aye. I think I'm going to avoid Win 11 as long as possible. Let's see what they make of it.

I get permission denied notices with a fully permissioned admin account on win7. I never got that with xp. That's unacceptable on a machine i own.

[-] Zacryon@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

What are you doing to get those permission denies as admin?

[-] kingludd@lemmy.basedcount.com 1 points 1 year ago

Most recently, trying to directly access user files through explorer. More disturbingly, while trying to uninstall "system" software. It seems like windows resembles unrooted android more and more with each version.
