What do you Wincucks think about the new Explorer UWP App that will replace your regular explorer in the next major update?

I enjoy uniformity in my platform ui.

But it would be nice to have another uniformity. That said uwp could be good but Microsoft isn't quite there yet.

Looks retarded.

Seriously, Microsoft got the Explorer perfect in Windows 8, especially with the Ribbon UI at the top. It doesn't need to be changed in Windows 10.

Leave the goddamn Explorer alone.
>>
>>53702023
Most likely not, they designer guy or whatever the fuck he is from Microsoft linked it on his twitter and then deleted it.

>>53702039
It's not official, it might not even change from what it is now.

The ease of use. Tabs give me a damn workflow boner.

UWP has evolved to a point that a file explorer made by it could be functional.

There are some things, though, that users will lose inevitably. Context menu, tag editor, Ribbon customization are some things that come into my mind.

Even if there is this change, I find hard to see that explorer.exe will disappear, we still have Paint and Windows Media Player even if FreshPaint and Groove exists. Also, Windows Insider Program has been helpful to let the developers what the users need in order to make this new File Explorer better.

Why do they always try so hard to copy Mac OS, I mean that bar did not have to be transparent, it was stupid when Apple did it, why is MS doing it?

When will this hipster "increase spacing" fad end? It soon will be pic related.

Fucking yes it is. Office 2007 started Ribbon UI in the Office world, and Windows 8 started it in the Windows world.

I should clarify for you retards that those images aren't real, they're fan made concepts.
We don't know anything about the new explorer other than that it's happening and it's probably UWP

Fuck UWP and fuck the "Windows Store" garbage.

I don't want goddamn "apps" on my desktop. It's bad enough that they replaced the fucking Calculator with an "app" version in Windows 10.

You're a retard if you're seriously triggered by the phrase "app"

they will just make buttons bigger in tablet mode. MS is safe as fuck, they won't dare to ape Apple or do something original, they will fuck up their current setup instead

there's clearly an option for cucks such as yourself.

"app" = mobile phone. "Program" = desktop.

Why you need tabs in file browser anyways?

Yup, that shit needs to GTFO. The oversized buttons on touchscreen UIs absolutely suck when you're using a mouse - they fill tons of content space, don't show as much on screen, and require more mouse movement to use.

for example, the win 10 alarm clock app. While it's useful it had had a GARBAGE desktop UI until the latest version. You couldn't scroll the number pickers, you had to click up/down or drag with the mouse. The popups had OK/cancel buttons despite the entire window having a save button. Andthe buttons were similar shades of grey you wouldn't even notice the buttons. The newer version (a couple weeks old now) is more usable on desktop, although uglier.

It looks futuristic like some Linux distro from the future.

As long as I get my Onedrive placeholders back, I don't mind.

I want to be able to change the fonts and size to whatever the fuck I want. Annoys me to no end how they misuse space just because they are lazy fuckers that don't do proper work on scaling with high dpi monitors.
That being said it looks a lot better than the horrible ribbon explorer introduced in Windows 8. But still a step backwards than a simple Explorer window without the fuckery of random folders and shit I don't need.
Right now your best bet is to run a shit hack called oldexplorer to get rid of the ribbon on Windows 8 and 10 and it's usable.
And as everyone else said
