Why does the Windows 10 UI feel pasted on top of the old, usable design?
With the themes service disabled on LTSB, I had explorer.exe crash and it was literally the old "basic" design from Windows 7 that was rendered (Pic related) until I restarted it.
Are you genuinely surprised that Windows 10 is just WIndows Vista Service Pack 8 but sold to you 5 times for maximum cockbag level?
Samuel Reed
Because Microsoft. Ever wondered why the setup (boot from media) looks the same like the Basic Aero theme? Because it's based on Windows 7.
Bonus: Check the build of Windows 7 in the setup.exe (boot from media). It's called "Windows Longhorn Preinstall Environment". I'm not fucking kidding. Longhorn was the internal codename for Vista. And they fucking forgot to change it.
MS these days...

Windows has been pasted on top of the old since 98, m8.
Leo Carter
This is what I'm talking about.

The annoying part is that could be a strength of the system. It clearly can and will render the Windows 7 UI. Most users prefer the Windows 7 UI. And yet, they insist on "muh metro".

+ actual USB 3.0 support + proper UEFI support (Windows 7 will stop booting on future systems) + numerous other core feature improvements...

So a driver from the MB manufacturer site and a feature present on SP1 disk. Thanks for confirming my post.

none of that can't be fixed by an update to windows 7, but of course if they did that they wouldn't be able to sell the following OSs

I actually love when I find cruft stuff hidden in Windows.
Is there more? I bet there's Windows 3 stuff hidden around in Win10

There was the thing where if you opened up windows xp sound effects in notepad there was a signature from en0zpeed (deepz0ne) who cracked sony soundforge. So M$ used cracked programs to make the sounds for win xp
Grayson Green
Does anyone know the name of the program I can get that neuters all of windows 10 spyware shit?
I just got a new windows 10 computer and am in the process of decraping it atm.
If you mean an update that doesn't include stuff you don't want, feel free to write your own OS.

That's an Xfce desktop environment with the Vertex GTK theme and the Windows calculator running in wine.
Angel Johnson
It's such a fucking lazily made OS. Half the settings are in the new settings app while the stuff they forgot about just opens up in the classic yet superior control panel-style interface
Wyatt Thomas
Didn't Brian Eno make those sounds? Do you ever actually use those buttons? I always just double click the title bar.
Incorrect. It's a universal OS, with various distributions designed for various purposes. There are some such as RHEL/CentOS meant for enterprise server/workstation use, but there are others like Ubuntu or Mint which focus more on the desktop experience.
Jaxson Bailey
Meu deus.
Lincoln Perry
And yet here we are, waiting for drivers to catch up to be as good as windows ones were in 2013.
Leo Morgan
Because Windows 10's theme is just a reskin of 7 with a few added features here and there. I guarantee they literally just wrote a new explorer theme stylesheet and that's basically it as far as the theme goes.
Christopher Richardson
Take a look at AMD and mesa. The development is actually scary.
You just have to upgrade your kernel and stay on mainline to get 5-15% performance bumps every number release. AMDGPU now surpasses the radeonsi driver in under one year and continues to grow.

Guys I'm thinking of grabbing this LTSB meme before the 31st dec deadline. I can revert to 7 pro, but still have an activated win 10 for future. I've used 8, 8.1 and 10 and just wanted my own desktop without nagging and the other issues of Windows interference and snooping. Is LTSB good enough to have that control again? I don't really want to start a thread on it because it'll take up another slot on the catalog. I'd appreciate some advice from people who use it.
everyone knew that Win7 was just Vista's SP2 but resold for marketing reasons
no what I'm surprised at is why they insist on making it worse windows always got more bloated (drastically so even) compared to the previous release, but from 8 on, it's gotten actively worse rather than just fatter

Josiah Martin
yup. except for windows 8 all changes were minor. the real problem with the windows 10 UI is that for no good reason there's "settings" and "control panel", which share some functions and have different designs, which is confusing every time.
Brayden Long
I'm downloading ltsb from mega
Leo Brown
Yeah, apparently there are other ways of getting it. I'm reading about it on another site. Might leave it though, I have legit win 7 pro licence at the mo and you have to do a fresh install with that LTSB.

No: >A value of 0 *will send* minimal data to Microsoft.
Dominic Butler
Cheers mate, I just happened to see something like that screenshot a little while ago. i can't justify to myself why I need to go through this process when I'm content with 7. but I have a history of trying new OS (not really new, I've used 10 vanilla) out as some form of masochistic fun or something. ... Debating whether to dual boot a Linux Distro too.
Cooper Hill
How did you get your window decoration so small? How come every theme makes it so fucking yuuge?
Luis Garcia
wait i run ltsbs alsp, how can i get the 7 theme to stay?
Logan Sanders
The deadline is only for upgrades to home/pro with a digital license. For Enterprise and Enterprise LTSB (2015/2016), you either use Kill MySelf, or buy a cheap MAK and convert to digital license by slmgr -ipk (the oem nonslp key, different for 2015 and 2016 and regular enterprise). No deadline.
Andrew Young
They're slowing moving away from the control panel. Fewer and fewer things are exclusive to it. I haven't had to open it in years, but some leftovers like deep network and power settings still open outside of the settings "app".
Jaxon Sullivan
Thanks, I realised that a bit after posting, if down the line i feel like doing a fresh install of windows I'll give it a try.
Jack Hernandez
Will the upgrader tool still work if I keep it laying around after the deadline? I've rolled back to Win7 twice and i'm tempted to try it again.

Back when I used windows, a couple times I saw 10 crash, reboot, and more or less reset to 7 for a bit. Windows 7 boot sound played every now and then as well. Surprised, since 8 killed boot sounds.
