Downloading I just joined

Welcome to Ten Forums SyncrukeX.

But this updating with a forced restart every time - this is a fairly new phenomenon. Shawn is probably more aware of this than most of us and just as tired of it.

I suppose these days with decent AI who actually needs programmers any more -- although as far as Windows is concerned wasn't the whole thing invented by Robots from the start.

As for coding / programming - I can basically type a few queries into EXCEL and it can generate within seconds a complex algorithim full also of "What If" type of answers --indespensible for any sort of business processing / project management-- to try and specify that sort of task for a coder - probably one who hasn't the slightest knowledge of complex maths and statistics and then hand it over to some offshored "programming Factory" in Bangalore or the like . wait days for it to be done, find its riddled with errors, test it etc etc --Roll on A.I --can't come quick enough in my view.

But as far as these releeases of Windows are showing : I'm sure it's just a case of "The inmates having control of the Asylum" now -- a bit like SevenofNine in one of the Startrek series :

You Will be Absorbed You Will Comply Resistance is Futile !!

Hi there
for someone who doesn't use or like "Tiles" on the desktop - there's absolutely nothing in the menu that even remotely to my eyes looks different from the previous version -- for stuff I use regularly I put on desktop with an icon via open file location -->send to desktop (create short cut).

Ditto--I use shortcuts, too. The square tiles are a hangover from that abomination, Windows 8... I didn't use them in Windows 8, either!

IMO, that kinda confirms my thoughts that maybe the hardware is getting too good too fast for the programmers to keep up with.

It's always been that way. First comes the hardware, then comes the software to take advantage of it!... I've seen it that way for 35 years with every computer system I've used, from DOS, to the Amiga (8 years of joy that was), to Win10, and all between. Works that way with 3d cards, etc. and etc. ad infinitum. CPUs, etc. My 3900X was released a bit over a year ago, and AMD is still refining the AGESAs with continuing updates that are included in the continuing motherboard bios releases. It's the way of the universe...
