    The Verge[^]:

    There’s lots of old UI in Windows, but some of it was only supposed to be temporary.

    If it ain't broke: keep shipping it

    I know: as opposed to so much else of Windows (broke and shipping)

          Interesting. Many embedded USB readers also limit their ability to read USB drives formatted as FAT to 32 GB. It would be a mistake to change this limit in the Windows UI.

            Did someone actually get the "You should never see this" error message?

            M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
