9 annoying Windows 10 problems and bugs we want fixed before launch.

Hello my lovely Microsoft users,

This articles is for those of you still running the microsoft developer preview which has lot of bugs or even the official insider preview.

What are the biggest Windows 10 problems Microsoft needs to fix?

Windows 10 is shaping up to be a good upgrade over both Windows 7 and Windows 8, but with the release date of 29 July mere weeks away, there are still some issues that need sorting.
So, while there’s still just about time, here are the biggest Windows 10 problems that we’re hoping Microsoft will fix before the Windows 10 Technical Preview is closed and the final version is released to users.

1. Tabs in File Explorer

One of the longest-running requested features for a new Windows is simply to allow the File Explorer to have tabs. Just as web browsers can have multiple tabs open at the same time but all contained in a neat single-windowed view, we want the same thing for File Explorer.
It seems like it should be a simple thing to add, but seemingly Microsoft is against the idea, as it's already tweaked File Explorer in Windows 10 considerably without including this feature.

This concept shows what a Windows 10 File Explorer with tabs could look like

2. PC Settings and Control Panel

With Windows 8, Microsoft introduced a new interface for controlling some key settings, providing a slicker interface compared to the existing Control Panel.
This has been extended in Windows 10, but it’s still far from a complete transition, with many options in Control Panel still unaccounted for in the new PC Settings section.
This wouldn’t be so much of a problem if Microsoft wasn’t so intent on pushing the Settings interface. A link to Settings now sits on the Start Menu, rather than a link to the Control Panel. There are also awkward moments where the Settings interface will open when you’ve selected an option in Control Panel and vice versa.

In a similar vein, the Computer Management interface needs a complete overhaul – there really should be a quicker and easier way to partition a hard drive, for instance.
It seems to us that a more focused ‘Quick Settings’ menu should be put front and centre, then an all-encompassing ‘Advanced Settings’ section should be invoked for power users. At the moment it’s a confusing mess.

3. Movable Search and Task View buttons

The new search and Task View (virtual desktop) features have dedicated buttons on the task bar, where they’re generally conveniently located.
However, some users may want to move them and currently that isn’t an option to do so. Although you can actually remove them completely if you so wish.
A simple improvement would be to make these moveable like any other taskbar icon.

4) More customisable Start Menu and better apps list

Although the Windows 10 Start Menu includes the highly customisable Live Tile interface, the main links aren't customisable. You get a most-used apps list, but it's not editable like it is in Windows 7.
Likewise, if you want to move the power button or user account button, or swap PC Settings back to Control Panel then you’re out of luck. Not, of course, that previous versions have allowed these buttons to be changed, but it would be nice.
Also, the main apps list on the Start Menu is very clunky. Click on All Programs in Windows 7 and you get a compact list that’s quick and easy to navigate. The new version has huge buttons that make it slower to use.
We appreciate that they’re designed with touchscreens in mind, but then wouldn’t touch users switch to Tablet mode? It seems to be yet another area where Microsoft has tripped itself up by trying to cater for both users at once.

5. Virtual Desktop configurability

There’s just no pleasing some, is there? No sooner has Microsoft added Virtual Desktop support than users are clamouring for it to be improved.
The main point of contention is that while users can arrange their open apps into lots of desktops and move them between desktops fairly easily, the desktops themselves can’t be customised. Specifically you can’t change the backgrounds or the icon layouts.

Some users have also lamented the decision to have Alt+Tab only show those apps open in the current desktop, rather than be a global action that shows all your apps across all desktops.

6. Finish updating icons

Windows 8 saw a new, more sharp-lined, high-contrast style brought to Windows, but it didn’t do a very good job of maintaining consistency throughout the OS, with many features still using the old style. 

Windows 10 has improved this, tweaking the majority of system icons and features to fit in with the new look. However, the task still isn’t complete, and while it doesn’t make a huge difference to the day-to-day satisfaction of using your computer, it does speak to the apparent difference in philosophy between Apple and Microsoft.
When the former overhauled the look of iOS, it did so in a much more complete manner than Microsoft has managed over two major iterations of Windows.

7. Make it easier to sign into a local account

Microsoft really wants you to create a Microsoft account when you buy Windows 10 so you can use all its Cloud syncing features, sign up for Office 365 and the rest. However, some users don’t want or need all that and just want a basic local login.
Windows 10 does provide this, but when first setting up the OS Microsoft doesn’t make this very clear and really pushes you towards signing up for a Microsoft account.
It really should be made more obvious as to how you can just login and get going without the hassle of register email addresses and the rest.

8. Better mobile integration

Microsoft is making a big deal of the fact that Windows 10 will work across all devices, from phones, through tablets to desktop PCs. As such, it’s ideal for things like hybrid devices which can switch between different interface styles.

Apple Mac OS X has shown the possible future with SMS Handoff
However, what it doesn’t have a huge amount of is ways to seamlessly move between different devices. With its latest OS X release, Apple made it possible for users to transfer calls from their phone to their laptop and send SMS from their computer. Microsoft's Handoff-style feature also allows you to pick up where you left off when it comes to browsing the web, using email, looking up something on Maps and more.
Now, Microsoft is somewhat stuck between a rock and a hard place here, as some users actively don’t want these sort of features and prefer to have a clean, simple, standalone operating system. However, considering Microsoft is trying to push users to have a fancy cross-device Microsoft account anyway, it would be good to have a few more features like this to make it worthwhile.

9. Stability issues

The final, yet most obvious, issue that Microsoft needs to address is simply making sure it really does iron out any further performance and stability gremlins in Windows 10. While our experience has largely been smooth, we've nonetheless had moments of the system completely falling over while doing nothing particularly challenging, and there are many other reports of instability.
It’s clear Microsoft’s strategy is one of ensuring users update their system regularly anyway – after all, none of the new gaming features will even be present on the initial release of the OS – but it certainly can’t be complacent when it comes to core stability. The company does need to ensure that what customers are buying at least works reliably out of the box.
Sadly, that’s why it’s very likely none of the features we’ve mentioned above will actually be fixed before the final release, as it’s just too much of a risk that they will introduce new errors at this late stage. We can but hope.
What problems have you experienced while running the Windows 10 Technical Preview, and what would you like to see Microsoft fix before 29 July?

ANY GOOD NEWS?

YES THERE ARE!

THE LATEST BUILD OF THE WINDOWS 10 IS STABLE WITH AN INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE AND MINOR BUGS THAT CAN BE FIXED AT EASE.
