The fact that a multi-billion dollar company publishes a post like this shows how bad things have gotten.
so… some really basic shit that should have been expected in a pre-2010 update + AI
Well done, guys. I guess you gotta start somewhere.
I would like to personally thank Windows for introducing the century of the Linux desktop to me and my family’s life.
Lol sure thing Microslop.
Integrating AI where it’s most meaningful, with craft and focus: You will see us be more intentional about how and where Copilot integrates across Windows, focusing on experiences that are genuinely useful and well‑crafted. As part of this, we are reducing unnecessary Copilot entry points, starting with apps like Snipping Tool, Photos, Widgets and Notepad.
OK but who thought that was a good idea in the first place and are they seeking employment elsewhere? It was and is incredibly stupid.
Reducing disruption from Windows Updates: Receiving updates should be predictable and easy to plan around, so we’re giving you more control. This includes the ability to skip updates during device setup to get to the desktop faster, restart or shut down without installing updates and pause updates for longer when needed, all while reducing update noise with fewer automatic restarts and notifications.
These are basic things that should have been there decades ago.
Thank you for holding us to a high standard. Windows is as much yours as it is ours
I’ll expect my dividend check posthaste.
The month of March ended sooner than expected this year…
Is this “quality” with us in the room right now? I’m pretty sure all quality windows had died with windows 7.
This blog post has some real “surejan.gif” energy. I’ll believe there are improvements if/when I see them.
They still insist on stuffing AI down the users’ throats. Good that I never started with this windows crap.
Reminds me of “Security security security.”
Now, with AI.
Reminds me of all those “tech magazine” articles years ago saying “akshually Edge is a really good browser” after the entire Windows user base only used it to download some other browser instead.
It was a decent browser. And an independent engine, which everyone here seems rabid for
Now it’s just another Chromium.
Trident was such a cooler name than WebKit, too. A rare instance of Microsoft giving something a name that was neither confusing nor lame.
I mean, those ActiveX controls were a little… well… Trident was a cool name!
There is never anything fundamentally bad about more choices, but that doesn’t mean that some of the choices are not fundamentally bad.
