06/15/2021, 6:25 PMThose UI changes are going to fit right in with the end users

06/15/2021, 6:26 PMThe centered Start menu is the worst part about this, for me. Zero chance we even think about looking at this until W10 is near the very end of extended support.

06/15/2021, 6:27 PMConsidering the amount of grief we got with the start menu changes in Windows 8, I am amazed that MS hasn't learned anything

06/15/2021, 6:28 PMI'm amazed that you're amazed, bud.

06/15/2021, 6:28 PMI hate the entire Start menu now that I look at that video again. I hope that can be customized.

Kasper Johansen
06/15/2021, 6:28 PMI find my self amazed about a lot of thing regarding MS at the moment
Kasper Johansen
06/15/2021, 6:29 PMAnother thing, the current WS2022 preview does not have the UI changes like Windows 11

06/15/2021, 6:30 PMWe found two new 2008 servers today in our environment...........

06/15/2021, 6:30 PM2008? Not R2?
n
Nick Panaccio
06/15/2021, 6:31 PMThey were R2, but still, lol

Kasper Johansen
06/15/2021, 6:31 PMI still see 2003 servers out there from time to time

Nick Panaccio
06/15/2021, 6:40 PMIgnoring those items, visually, it does look a lot better - especially File Explorer.
k
Kasper Johansen
06/15/2021, 6:40 PMYeah, I like the icons
Kasper Johansen
06/15/2021, 6:41 PMIt also looks like it will work even better on a tablet

Nick Panaccio
06/15/2021, 6:41 PMYou can snap windows by hovering over the maximize button, too. That's neat. Hope they integrate the PowerToys stuff.
Nick Panaccio
06/15/2021, 6:41 PMYeah

Kasper Johansen
06/15/2021, 6:50 PMI keep going back to that start menu image. It is going to take some getting use to I think. Right now it looks like a bit of a mess, but hopefully it will look better once I have Windows 11 on a machine in front of me
n
Nick Panaccio
06/15/2021, 6:51 PMI guess they're going for the portal look.
k
Kasper Johansen
06/15/2021, 6:52 PMYeah, and right now that doesn't look so good IMO
Kasper Johansen
06/15/2021, 6:53 PMoh, and I really really hope it will be easier to customize compared to Windows 10
n
Nick Panaccio
06/15/2021, 6:53 PMI actually saw a post on Reddit recently from somebody showing how he customized the entire W11 Start menu. Looked like an XML file, but he was able to really customize every last detail.
Nick Panaccio
06/15/2021, 6:54 PMIf they made an editor for it, that would be ideal.
k
Kasper Johansen
06/15/2021, 6:54 PMOh yes an editor would be awesome
n
Nick Panaccio
06/15/2021, 6:55 PMWell shit, I should have know this was coming since it looks like these screenshots from 9 days ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/nt2r58/windows_11_start_menu_custom/
Nick Panaccio
06/15/2021, 6:55 PMNow THAT I can work with, since it's more closely resembles 10.

06/15/2021, 6:58 PMUgh, don't know what to think. Some is new, some is throwback material to ancient Windows versions. Also, skinny scrollbars are a PITA to use.
n
Nick Panaccio
06/15/2021, 7:00 PMI didn't even notice the scrollbars until now, ugh.
Nick Panaccio
06/15/2021, 7:00 PMI'm going to wind up clicking exactly 1 pixel to the side of them
