Microsoft downgrade , we are on our way to Windows 95
So I don't quite know how these people think but I became so much skeptical to do upgrades as honestly all I gain of em are more disk space consumed , more darkened interface and yet important features removed .
Let me review some of the important features I personally started missing over version updates over the past few years . I am listing those important to me I am sure you people have more to add but meh those are my concern .
First release
We lost the ability to track internet traffic/quota used that was showing next to all Wifi hotspots , they give you instead some over all monitor of internet traffic used , based on 1-30 month cycle and un-modifiable , we don't need that actually as not all isps use 1-30 billing cycle .

Graphics started running faster , I praised that update here in forum , also video encoding was faster , however it was the era when windows update got all hunged and the internet was filled with questions related to failing to update and no suggestion was really working to fix them .

Graphics performance and video encoding hindered greatly but windows updates became smoother , 3D builder app was replaced by a joke app named 3D paint , Reader app was removed and we were told : You can use your internet browser instead , why have a dedicated reader ! Lite weight outlook express was deprecated as they saw it was useless neglecting that the majority of mobile software sync/backup suites relied on its database to save contacts but then I guess this was Microsoft's way to make life difficult for android users , a battle Microsoft started then lost immediately after .

Microsoft decided to legacy out a lot of hardware , where you find audio , game controllers and graphics card either non functional or forcefully downgraded to generic drivers losing all their cool features something leading the majority of those who faced that to revert back to previous build and for the rest to live with hindered features as they never knew what hit em . We lost Groove Music , we lost People , we lost HomeGroup which was hilarious as this was the friendly mean to share files among a home network without the need of the assistance of a network administrator (LOL) and I did laugh alot at the suggestion page microsoft started explaining alternatives where it stated : You can mail your files to other pcs (LOL) or use OneDrive (Why they fail to understand the majority of the world internet speed is rubbish and has quota ?) and like that wasn't enough they removed software restriction from group policy , so if you are in a company that has a domain , an administrator now have to move pc to laptop to lock all apps the company don't want you to run :)
1809
The launch was a failure , some lost their data , some were never able to log back in again falling into boot loops etc and had to reinstall windows , and the survivors noticed a lot of sync options have changed or deprecated , Hologram app was lost .
So me looking back at the things we bleed update to another I am seeing this : if your happy with what you have just don't upgrade , cause apparently microsoft doesn't want you happy :)
Cheers
If you are happy and you know it clap your hands![]()
