    Agree, Cliff. We know that is one of the main reasons why MS created WinRT. We know many more, but I don't think it's worth the effort addressing those that seem to have a know-it-all attitudes and so set in their ways as to be so closed minded. Some users are just simply stuck on 7 and the old tech. I went through that in 8F. Might as well talk to a wall so far as this is concerned.

    Hi There. Yes it will and let's not forget the Power Users Context Menu > WinKey/X. A great feature introduced in 8 that I'm glad they kept in 10.

    Is that why you stay over here? I have used so many different OS's(except Apples, only because I haven't had a chance yet) and the desktop's and settings are myriad, there is no best, only getting used to(finger memory). until the developers change it, which is their own right. They just about all had search features to find or get what I'm looking for. It's like being at a night club, why walk up to the bar, when the waitress/waiter will bring me my beer?

    MS will do want they want to, I do not care where they place the CP and long as everything in it is accessible.

    Pressing the key on the keyboard and right clicking it on the screen are two different menus. I was actually responding to the post before yours, I just type too slow. The right click gets you the same power menu HippsieGypsie posted.

    Look, I'm glad you're supportive of Microsoft's little "SkyNet" idea. If you think it will work, go ahead.

    Micro$oft's ultimate goal is to remove the ability to install desktop programs and lock the OS to the "Windows Store", like Windows RT, iOS, and Android. Microsoft no longer cares about selling operating systems like they used to (why do you think Windows 10 is a free upgrade???). They're now going into the 1st party software businesses. Notice how Office 2013/2016 are subscription-only?
    (Yes I know you can buy it one time but it's a rip off, don't get me started). Have you noticed how the whole goal of Windows 8 and Windows 10 was to increase Windows Phone's marketshare? Again, we know Microsoft doesn't care about Windows anymore. In Windows 8 (and even more so in Windows 10), Microsoft is heavily pushing their "metro apps" idea to get users to buy a Windows Phone instead of an iOS/Android device, but also to incentivise developers to make "apps" for that particular OS . That's where Microsoft sees their future. Mobile OSes. Remember, Windows 10 is the last version of Windows.
