Windows 10 First Impressions?

I was able to clean up the Start Menu so it's now quite usable to me. Got rid of all the Modern stuff and pinned Control Panel, Devices, Windows Defender and the Run box. Not for everyone but it suits me fine.

Nice pic (wallpaper). Did a photo similar about twenty years ago, albeit sadly it has disappeared along with my brain, hence could I trouble you for a copy. . .thanks if you reply. . .:)

Quite nice so far.

Some peculiarities with the virtual desktops though.
With some applications, if you try to invoke another instance in another desktop, it will kick you back to the v-desktop that has that application open and open another one on top of it.

When you are on another v-desktop, the thumbnails from other v-desktops hide at the bottom of the taskbar:

Attachment 5483

That part's quite odd I found but I think that might be intentional though. The idea is to use the virtual Desktops as a means to keeping an X amount of windows open in one workspace. If you were to be opening up File Explorer again in a different VD, there's a likelihood you can lose track of what other File Explorer windows are open and make a mess of everything. It makes sense, but at the same time might cause some issues. I can see a scenario where I would have several File Explorer windows open running some copy actions between a few hard drives. But then I want to step away from that and add music to my Windows Telephone through File Explorer, whoops! Right smack dab in the middle of the copy actions between those hard drives and now have to shuffle around through windows I didn't want to shuffle around, or add more windows to the mess.

Holy crap! They even changed the Computer icon in regedit!

Oh, very good to know as that was a concern of mine.
Now about the Icons in the start menu... can they be changed to text...??
