I installed it on Virtualbox to see if I might want to upgrade in a little while when I can get my free upgrade

I think it's pretty cool so far

But why is it cool, so far?

I like the animations, it seems quite smooth, Microsoft edge isn't so bad but I want to wait to use it until they get extensions so I can adblock

I like the start menu

I like how on the photo viewer you can do Instagram-type editing

I wish there were more apps to put on the live tiles on the start menu, I wanted to put a gmail app there but there isn't a proper one

I hope they put in the ability to configure those live tiles further actually, I want to make my own square icons for example

et cetera

That extension wood be a function of adding it to ur browser. Firefox and Chrome will make that happen. So did the install come with the new browser?
Old IE got Adblock just last year.

Compared to Windows 95 through to Windows 7, what features have been removed in Windows 10. For example, we used to be able to change the start up sound in the settings without having to do a god damn hack found on the internet. Another example, we used to be able to have Windows remember the size and position of more than one fucking Explorer window at a time. Also, is the file search utility any different from Windows 7. Currently you have to learn an arcane set of commands to access the full capability of options, as the GUI part limits us. Also, we can't specifiy searching case-sensitively. We also can't have the search utility do plain text content searches to unknown (to the OS) file types or files with no file extension (without resorting to the Command Prompt instead). Oh, also does the fucking internet browser always open unmaximized.

Indeed. Being stymied from doing what one would like and expect is the very definition.
