    Windows 10 Update 1804 - Agile Shmagile

    So, I've written this long, thorough review of Windows 10 version 1804, including upgrade process and associated errors, unwanted changes to user settings, Samba sharing, new privacy options, Timeline, Activities, multiple desktops, Fluent design, system startup, data cleanup, security features, application aliases, updates, phone sharing, graphics settings and performance, battery life, and more. Have fun.

    After my testing of it I hope it does not come back. It's a solution in search of a problem. People wanted a tabbed file browser, not a tabbed OS. It's buggy and slow and makes open windows more difficult to work with. It also caused up to a 20 second delay in closing child windows when the parent windows was in a tab.

    Perhaps you can check out this app and report back, I've always wondered if it's any good:

    First it was Clippy, and now they threaten Snippy.

    Is there no end to Microsoft's cruelty?

    It's tools that with names that end with ppy. That's why. Rather trippy.

    Still trying to read all your info on Win 10. I clicked on the YouTube video with the MS 'expert' and I've been so busy wiping tears of laughter from my eyes, I haven't been able to read your report. LOL.........Funniest thing I've ever seen........and, sadly, true.
