>>47478980
>windows

>>47478980
not sure if it's completely stable yet, I haven't come across any bugs yet. But I would wait until release until you install it on a main machine, the interface is very undeveloped right now. Duno what this shit is talking about, I think it looks ugly.
I still think the 7 start menu is better. Looks better to look at, has easy access to stuff like music or the control panel (to the side mind you and not taking space to the list of programs) and its completely free of any modern apps that I'd never use, though I'm not sure if you can completely remove everything there.
I fucking hate the new interface, it's like they've deformed back to '90s GUI and labeled it as new. It's horrible, why is everything one whole bright color? I know a OS shouldn't be about looks, but this literally hurts my fucking eyes.

what's wrong with BF4?

hopefully GTA V works on build 10041 otherwise I'll just have to roll back to 8.1

Can I install technical preview on my main desktop PC? Like I'm not gonna be crashing? I'm on windows 8 right now, and I'm really getting fed up with it but would rather not go back to 7.
>>47479349
linuxbum autism,
pay no attention.
>>47479350
Yeah I installed it over my 8.1 This new build is gonna be the beta that Microsoft releases in a couple days anyway.
>>47478769
whats wrong with windows 2000 style?
>>47479371
so build 10056 is a milestone release of sorts?
should I wipe 10049 and install it then? it should be more stable right?
>>47479154
>why is everything one whole bright color?
It's not everything, it's just the window borders and taksbar, you fucking autist.
Also, it doesn't have to be a bright color, you can just as well change it to white, gray or black.
And if you want an interface full of gradients, drop shadows and faux reflection effects, go fucking kill yourself. This isn't 2001 anymore, every company has already figured out that software should not look like a 3D simulation just because it can be done. Unless it's used to evoke familiarity with something that is unknown to the user (certainly not the case with any OS in existance today), skeuomorphism is completely useless.
All that padding.
>>47479463

>>47478769
is technical preview worth using as of right now? or is there gonna be like a more stable big beta update coming in a month or so? i dont wanna wait til like fucking july to get this
>>47478769
Yeah, an interface that shoves advertising in your face. No thanks. Do away with that whole ugly block of "app" shit, and I'll be fine.
>>47479463
I don't want that, I just want more refined buttons and borders. Windows 2000, XP, Vista and 7 had borders and colored buttons to make things more defined. Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 have NONE OF THAT, they all make one color without any borders, it's ugly and annoying to use. Go fuck your tablet you metro loving pussy.
>>47478769
I liked this design better than the current build. I hate how search isn't part of the start menu, and I hate how you can't resize the start menu or pin programs in the list part. I also don't like not being able to change how all apps is sorted like in Windows 8.
as long as you don't care about security.
Windows 95: HD Remix
I'm still in love with the BeOS / Haiku interface. Simple and minimal, but still beautiful to look at it.
>>47479687
Somehow windows 95 looks better than windows 10.
How did they manage to make vista and 7 look so fucking good, and then decide to just throw everything away?
Did they just decide to save money and stop hiring designers, and hope people would not notice?
>tfw they will never go back to/use the Whistler title bar theme
>>47479704
They actually put effort into them.
>>47479709
probably because it looks like a cluttered piece of shit and isn't simple enough for smart people.
>>47479722
Yeah, they totally put effort into Vista.
>>47478769
so instead of the start menu taking up 100% of your screen it now takes 60%.
>>47479681
You can do all that in the newest build 10056
Here is a screen cap of it. I like the color options automatically change depending on your background picture too, nice little perk.
>>47479724
The title bar, anon, the rest does look like shit.
>>47479732
They did, the whole interface was visually consistent and still stuck true to what Windows was: not a shitty tablet OS for consumers
>>47479738
Do they still not have the ability to enable the clock and tray on multiple monitors?
when will they fucking learn.
>>47479752
Nope, still the same as windows 8.1 lol
I dont care though I just set the clock screen to my main desktop as I mainly look at that one.

I'm a firm believer that the newest version of Windows is always the best version of Windows, but that doesn't mean Windows isn't the worst OS.

Just use Debian.

9x, NT, 2K, XP (minus the shitty color scheme) were the apex of the Windows UI.

>>47481159
>what is virtualization
>>47481212
What's so bad about 3.1? I bet you can't even restart Windows without rebooting the whole machine in 9x, NT, 2K and XP.
>>47481232
no start button, no taskbar...
>>47481232
The program manager is shit, multitasking is shit, navigating the file system is utter shit.
It was, of course, perfectly adequate for what it was, but I wouldn't call it the height of the Windows UI, not even slightly.
>I bet you can't even restart Windows without rebooting the whole machine in 9x, NT, 2K and XP.
No, you can't, because NT isn't DOS with a crude overlay.
I can't remember if you can get back into Windows from "DOS mode," but I'm pretty sure you can.
>>47481258
No wasted pixels at the bottom of your screen when you maximize/fullscreen an application. Seriously, this was a major gripe when Win95 was new.
>>47481280
>The program manager is shit
You can group your programs and launch them easily. Group icons expand when you double-click on them. What's the problem? It's a fair deal nicer than the wonky Metro start screen where you have to scroll back and forth to find the group you want since they don't expand/collapse.
>multitasking is shit
Works on my machine (TM)
>navigating the file system is utter shit
If you don't like File Manager, download one of the fine alternatives that are available.
>I can't remember if you can get back into Windows from "DOS mode," but I'm pretty sure you can.
You can. It's a DOS shell. Just exit and type WIN and it loads again.

Why do you think I'm unironically shilling for the piece of shit that is metro? Adding program shortcuts to the manager can be kind of annoying, which is my biggest problem with it.
>If you don't like File Manager, download one of the fine alternatives that are available.
but you shouldn't have to, that's the problem
>Works on my machine (TM)
works for me too, considering I'm running it on hardware that was $10-12k when 3.1 was a new product I would kind of expect it to, doesn't mean it isn't still shit, the taskbar is pretty wonderful for quick application switching
>You can. It's a DOS shell. Just exit and type WIN and it loads again.
>>47481331
figured you could, I never run 9x in DOS mode
>>47481473
>Adding program shortcuts to the manager can be kind of annoying
Eh, if I'm remembering right, it's just file, new, put the command, give it a name and optionally an icon and you're set.
>but you shouldn't have to, that's the problem
You shouldn't have to install 3rd party software to get a functional start menu back either.
>works for me too
Even on lesser machines it worked fine for the time. You didn't expect a 386 to run 20 programs at once, so alt-tab was sufficient for switching tasks. It even worked properly for switching between full-screen, textmode, and windowed apps.
>>47481545
>You shouldn't have to install 3rd party software to get a functional start menu back either.
You shouldn't, that's why Windows post-8 is garbage.
>alt-tab was sufficient for switching tasks
it is, but I still prefer the taskbar rather than cycling through the alt-tab carousel when I'm running a lot of applications.
I just don't like 3.1 versus 95 and later, the start menu/taskbar really were useful additions to the OS and something long overdue
that and 3.x just plain looks like ass to me for whatever reason even at higher resolutions
>>47479747
>>47479704
Half of the windows xp users didn't go to vista because it was too heavy for their system.. then Microsoft realized that 90% of their customers are plebs so they have to make their OS less demanding and more simple. So they pooped out win8
>>47481639
Vista had the highest requirements. 7 lowered it when netbooks were all the rage, and then 8 kept it about the same.
Let's show some respect to OP.
He's blind...
I like the W10 start menu, although... It's got a long way to go. I like that you can customize it a lot more than you used to be able to, hell, I could in all likelihood stop using my taskbar as a shortcuts toolbar if I bothered taking the time adding everything back to it.
How will I be able to use my 8.1 key for 10?

>>47482119

>>47479709
>tfw never owned a Celeron
>>47482145
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Windows 8.1, is in fact, Windows 8.1/Key, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, Windows 8.1 plus Key. The key is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another expensive component of a fully functioning Windows system made useful by the Windows corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by Microsoft.
Many computer users run a modified version of the Windows system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of the installation key which is widely used today is often called "Windows", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the Windows system, developed by Microsoft. There really is an installation key, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
The installation key is the license: the code in the system that allocates the machine’s right to run the other programs that you run. The key is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. A Windows key is normally used in combination with the Windows operating system: the whole system is basically Windows with a key added, or Windows/Key. All the so-called "Windows" distributions are really distributions of Windows/Key.
>>47482119
Windows 10 will be 'free' according to Microsoft. Even people using pirate copies will get the free upgrade. It's probably the smartest thing Microsoft has ever done.
Or the dumbest.
Either way it's going to drive a much higher adoption rate than any previous version of windows and the M$ Store will always be there, waiting for a big enough userbase to make it profitable.
Essentially, they're taking the Android approach but spreading it across phones, tablets, XBox AND PC.
>>47482250
Do you really think pirates are going to buy programs from the store?
>>47482263
No, but many of them will use Bing and get the integrated ads. This also helps save MS from having another XP -- a 10 year old OS they're forced to continue supporting because a large portion of the userbase is still using it.
>>47482280
Do you really think pirates won't block the ads?
>>47482285
Many of them won't. We're talking pirates, not paranoid /g/entoomen.
it looks like a 12 year old designed it with the MS paint rectangle tool.
>>47482263
Well, *I* don't, that's fucking retarded, but M$ certainly seem to. Besides, it's possible. Certainly with Android stuff, it's less hassle to just buy the damn 'pro' app at £2 than to spend four hours scouring through the usual sources looking for this obscure app, downloading a copy that's not 5 versions out of date, then finding it was repackaged with malware in any case.
I'm willing to bet that M$ are betting along the same lines, plus ad revenue, although anyone with a half-ounce of common sense knows how to block said ads, but M$ won't care - they'll get the contract to slot ads into the OS framework, so they get paid regardless of whether the ads get seen or not.

For the plebs, yeah, but fuck them. More money in my pocket when I'm asked to come get rid of all those toolbars.
Underneath all the fluff they've skinned it with, windows 10 is a very slick piece of software. And it's a massive improvement on 8/8.1 - at least it's possible to find what you're looking for with 10, without being forced to start blindly typing search terms into a tablet interface and hoping it finds the right thing. Windows 7 was still more traditionally-PC-User-friendly, but compared to 10, was a slow resource hog.
I'm not saying I'm excited about the final releases, but I'm looking forward to re-formatting, clean installing and comfortable use.
By the way, I've been running 10 in the LEAST stable configuration possible. Windows 7, upgraded to 8.0 then rolled back, upgraded to 8.1 and rolled back, then upgraded to 10 with release 9010(I think? It was early anyway), and kept patching up until now. One or two crashes, mostly relating to goddamn flash player being a dick, but otherwise?
Stable as a rock.
Do they release new ISOs with new updates or do I have to update shits myself from the beginning?
>>47482465
It's done through a windows update like service at the moment. In fact, even with the latest releases, you can uninstall it like any other service pack and revert to windows 7 - I'll be doing a clean install once the final release is out, but updates have been stable enough so far.

And fix the fucking Skype for android already. Notifications don't work properly.

>Why did they change it when it was so good?
Because if doesn't go well with a range of 1280x800 to 3840x2160 screen resolution.
Minimal is easier to scale, that's the only reason.
>>47478769
I won't because I agree. I do think the start menu is slightly overlapping the start bar by a few pixels. I hope that's fixed
>>47484052
>>47484105
You're a fail-troll and probably agree with me in actuality.
>>47482731
can't you pin programs to that menu? without the win8 tile view thingy
>>47482731
why? How is that useful? It's just a list of, like, 5 shortcuts. Yeah, much better then more shortcuts...
>>47479673
Fucking this. "Flat" design belongs in 1990. It's hipster bullshit.
>Hurr durr, we gots 4k-capable graphics cards and monitors, better make the shittiest-looking UI we can.
>>47479976
IT'S SO UNCLUTTERED!!! IF WE JUST GOT RID OF THE TITLE BAR AND WINDOW BORDERS, FOR THE "FLAT DESIGN" LOOK...
WINDOWS 11 WILL BE THIS.
>>47480069
There is a fix for the CPU clock speed thing. RAM, not so much.
>>47482225
Be proud
>>47478769
It lacks any form of structure or logic. Even the name "Start Menu" is saying nothing about what it this thing actually does or contains. Apparently it starts things, even this is a misnomer since you also need to click it to turn the computer off, or change settings?
Anything in the left upper list just cluttered together, there are links to two directories, then theres a link to PC settings, and then then theres a link to the file manager again, why is it mixed up?
There's a search bar at the bottom of the task bar and then there's also a search bar in the start menu. Why? Whats the difference between those two?
On the right hand side, there's a grid of applications, but there also a list of applications on the left side, whats the point of having both? Why are some icons in the grid displaying titles while the others of the same size are not? Whats the point in those messy alterations of tile sizes, which only makes looking at it more tiring?
What are those images that are apparently just displaying random ads for games, movies or companies doing there?
Why are some icons flat and some 3d?
FUCK YOUR FLAT DESIGN.

I don't know, I wish tho.
>>47482804
Yeah, but it leaves a huge blank square, right? At least it used to do that in previous builds

so functional.
Not.
>>47484806
How is the ability to run 20 guest operating systems on top of a different host OS, and being able to switch between them quickly and graphically, not functional?
>>47478769
I still have no clue what the fuck are they doing with W10. Why all those useless tiles in the start menu? Why would you want the metro version of programs such as Skype, with their limited ugly tablet UI?
All the changes they have made to the design after W7 are absolutely idiotic. They're just throwing useless mobile stuff into a desktop OS without actually improving anything
>>47484855
Why do i need that fuckin retarded spinning animation for that?
Besides that W8 can do that in hyperv.
>>47484878
>Hyper-V
LOL

It's basically Windows 7 with ads.

Why are Windows forcing this tile shit? It's ugly, cluttered design. Nobody wants it.
>>47484958
I made my own tiles, I want it.
Fuck you.
>>47484920
Better watch out asshole, or the Microsoft Gangsters will fucking get you.
>>47484986
I bet they're fucking ugly and your mother never loved you. Eat shit
>>47485024
I'm not a designer, but they are functional as fuck.
>>47480514
mine looks fucked up, how do you do that?
>>47484958
They're removable
Thereby not forced

so you didn't deny you were a Microshill
It's simple, but hardly refined.
>>47485142
you didn't deny you were an FSF shill either
Windows XP with the Zune theme still looks the best IMO.
The Start Menu doesn't need all these tiles and shit, I have 21+ shortcuts pinned to my start menu and that's enough for mostly everything I use.
Everyone, press Windows + D
It minimizes everything and then brings it back, you don't need the start menu to be a fucking desktop sized window popping up. That's what the desktop is for.

But I am
>>47485175
well, there you have it

>damage productivity with lack of shadows
How the HELL can the ugly windows shadows damage your damn productivity, if anything it would produce the opposite effect
>>47484906
Where are the ads? Tripadvisor is an App and that minion is from the Store minigame. You can easily remove them
>>47485233
>>47480425
Drop shadows are annoying IMO.
Flat designs, however, look terrible. Windows XP's got enough depth to the stuff in it, and the Icons are all done well.
I don't like the borderless look of 10 but I do like the lack of shadows.
>>47484653
If you actually took time to try the beta for 10 minutes, you'd realize why most of your complaints are misguided, stupid or just inane.
TOUCH SCREEN INTERFACES ARE DESTROYING COMPUTING
>>47485506
They seriously are.
Even programs like browsers are coming out with the fucking retarded "mobile" menus which is the 3 horizontal bars. If I ever see that mobile menu on an OS level, I might just go live in the woods.

>>47478769
they even included a picture of the target audience in the bottom-right of the start menu! :)
The search has gotten worse and worse since windows 7. It just seems to want to pop up bing search most of the time. Land the search is very important now that it's very difficult to navigate the start menu.

stay butthurt about not being able to do it on windows
>>47487698
What? We've got Aero flip, and there's also many programs for emulating multiple desktops.
Windows 10 actually makes multiple desktops native, even though it's a useless feature no one uses.
>>47487549
I just spit water on my keyboard over this, thanks
>>47487770
That image is going on 10 years old now.
>>47487780
Yeah, and windows 10 is only just getting virtual desktops natively... and they can't even be displayed in 3D.
stay pleb, windowstards

>UI face

RIP in peace, please.
>>47488030
No, I'm glad they're adding virtual desktops, they should have done that long ago. I just think a 3D view of 2d workspaces is completely unnecessary and only good for morons who believe that fancier animations make a better OS.
>>47488127
But that's just it, the workspaces aren't really 2D any more than a cube is 2D because you can represent each side of it in 2D.

You needed something like Norton Desktop to make it functional. By itself, 3.1 was half a desktop.
