    Hmm did not think of that. I will check into it. Thank you :)

    Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet. The interesting thing about software is it can not reproduce, until it can.

      What did you Canucks do to deserve such mistreatment? Oh yeah, you gave us Alanis Morissette. She is enough to cancel out all that Rush and BTO gave to us.

        It doesn't give the cascading perspectives of the windows with {windowkey]-Tab; you just get a tiled effect of min-windows, similar to the line of mini-windows with Alt-Tab. (Just checked - the same happens with the default aero.theme as well). I liked the cascade as it gave you something meaningless to do which waiting.

        You're referring to "Aero Flip" here. Well, unfortunately that's gone since Windows 8 as far as I remember. TBH, I completely forgot about that, every time people complain about "missing Aero" it's only about the window transparency.

          1. You can't drag an address from Edge onto the desktop to create a shortcut. Dumb omission. 2. Connecting to a VPN now requires 4 clicks (including having the "Settings" dialog open) instead of two clicks almost in-place) 3. No areaAero. I know it's in there, buried, but so far I've not had any luck enabling it. ...and if that's all I can find to complain about then something went right somewhere.

          Win10 is just a Trojan in your panties. Said enough.

            The lack of respect for users' privacy and the data-mining model has already put me off. Ditto for Google. Looks like I will be switching to Mac.

                By all accounts Apple gathers less data. They also have an official stance of not following the data-mining / targeted adds model of their rivals. If I discover otherwise then I will simply avoid Apple too. It really is that simple. Microsoft are out of order and their behavior is totally unacceptable. Ditto for Google.

                  Just for curiosity's sake: do you have a credit card and/or are you a member of a rewards program (eg Air Miles, credit card reward program etc)?

                      Have you tried re-installing drivers in compatibility mode?
