Microsoft teases new Windows 10 UI in video celebrating 1 billion users
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
Windows dark is the best feature of Windows 10. I thought I'd never like a Windows again after Win8 but Microsoft did it again.
It's not in 2004 either. This is for later. Maybe 2009, maybe next year.
Windows 10 already looks pretty good. The new design is nice but not really what is lacking. It's still dreadful as a touch UI experience, a regression on Win 8.1 even after 4 years of release. They've had plenty of time to refine and improve but don't seem interested.
Well, they seem to be phasing out traditional tablet mode in favor of desktop mode with a touch-friendly taskbar like chromeos so it's a start I guess.
Are they changing anything with Narrator with the accessibility settings update? It's quite limited as it is now.
Yup. New layer of sheen on the same piece of crap. Three provisioned laptops in the last few years between school and work, and while I've been amazed by how much the experience varies by OEM, in all cases, I've been amazed how you can quickly punch through the veneer and experience an unstable, buggy experience.
my dell XPS has been working fine, just find it funny how fast it reverts to the ancient UI elements :D
My thoughts exactly. I already don't mind how Windows 10 looks, so i guess this is good?
I'll never stop using a file explorer replacement at this point, but it's good to see them finally impliment a proper dark mode for it.
I'd like some proper desktop scaling while I'm at it, but I don't expect that any time soon.

The most powerful Neo/Flynn I ever felt was using my "I know you and Frank were planning to disconnect me" 2001 HAL sample as my shut down sound on my Mac.
Now that I'm working from home, I hooked up my Win10 laptop to my LG Ultrafine 5K (a monitor designed for Macs) and I'm surprised at how well Windows handles high-dpi displays. I run at 200% scaling and that's comfortable for me. I did have to set "Override high DPI scaling behavior. Scaling performed by: Application" for a couple programs that would display blurry Open dialogs, but besides that, mostly looks pretty great!
I can concur. While I'm working from I started to remote into my Win10 laptop from my 5k iMac using the Microsoft Remote Desktop App and the app has an option to optimize the resolution for Retina displays and it's doing an amazing job. Everything is so sharp and bright it's crazy! It's going to be hard going back to my 3440x1440 ultrawide at the office. LOL
I thought I wasn't going to like the removal of the tiles, since I actually like them, but the new style looks really good too. It's really evolved over the years.
Not entirely sold on the new explorer yet. It can't be missing features, but it is looking nicer. Can we finally ditch that legacy file Properties panel? It's far outlived its usefulness.

Thanks, I hate it.
Just kidding, it looks dope. I enjoy using Windows 10, and I can't wait for this update.
