A suggestion for Improve Taskbar
Windows 10 is the most used in the world. And we would like to give Microsoft Windows a suggestion. Windows 10's taskbar needs a lot of improvement. It has only two modes of taskbar icon size. Larger size (default) and smaller taskbar. Not a customized option. If the default size of this icon is large, if no one likes it, it will use smaller. But the small ones become very small icons. Like Linux, you can resize icons according to your custom. This feature is mandatory for all. This feature is available in all operating systems today but not in Windows 10.
Indexer Diagnost. I could love it, I don't, at least not yet
šŖšµš®š š±š¼ šš¼š ššµš¶š»šø š¼š³ ššµš² š»š²š š¶š»š±š²š š¶š»š“ šš¼š¼š¹? If you're not familiar with the new indexer tool, it's available as a beta in store. I was very excited when Indexer Diagnostics was launched. I'm sure it will be very useful. I find the information provided in the app to be confusing. Take a look at this screenshot: (link is to my SharePoint) https://netorgft5693133-my.sharepoint.com/:i:/g/personal/loke_llh2019_no/ERCes9s_noZIv2643-KSMW4BGTJY5gPiqJd_rUMHK4qgKQ?e=klw2DK This is how I read the information: šš£šš”šŖššš š„šš©ššØ: š¾:\šŖšØšš§šØ I read: We index everything in users and subfolders šššš”šŖššš š„šš©ššØ: š:\šŖšØšš§šØ/š”š¤š š Loke is my user. Now I read; We index everything except my user. šššš”šŖššš š„šš©ššØ: š:\š¬šš£šš¤š¬šØ I asked two friends how they read it: We don't index anything from Windows. I'm an above-average user, but the information in "search root" doesn't mean much to me: https://netorgft5693133-my.sharepoint.com/:i:/g/personal/loke_llh2019_no/EQSz50lPkmBLodprerncPjAB6L4PLsqdMb7NeJGZ3BSIWw?e=M9cOFr MS survey on this page asks the question: 5. I can complete a complex computer-based task (e.g., setting up a printer or wi-fi) My personal opinion is setting up hardware or connect WI-FI is a minimum of knowledge. How can MS think users will understand how to use the Indexer tool and at the same time consider setting up a printer is complex? Is it just me? What do you guys think?
What's the future of Win32 and UWP?
For those who aren't familiar, Win32 applications are your traditional desktop programs. They are typically installed via a downloaded installer, can be run directly from their exe files and are located in the Program Files folder of every Windows computer. UWPs, on the other hand, are essentially glorified mobile apps as part of Microsoft's last-ditch effort to gain developer support for Windows Phone. They can only be distributed via the Windows Store, designed from the ground up to be mouse-unfriendly, and use a completely different application architecture than traditional programs. UWPs cannot be launched directly from their exe files; their program files are hidden away in special directories that regular users are not allowed to access. The idea behind UWP was to create an application that could be programmed once and run on all Windows devices, both phone and desktop. This way, it would be easier to create software for Windows Phone, thus incentivizing developers to write more mobile apps. However, with the demise of Windows Phone and the failure of Windows 8, it doesn't seem that UWPs need to exist anymore. Yet, despite this, Microsoft is throwing more and more resources into UWP. They've converted all of their first party-software to the UWP platform, made it the only kind of software that can run on Windows VR/AR/MR headsets, and stopped adding new features to Win32 entirely. Where is Microsoft going with this? Does Microsoft plan to eventually deprecate Win32? Microsoft hasn't made their goals or intentions very clear, and it's causing no small amount of concern in the developer community. The fact that they have no public plans to deprecate Win32 at the moment is little comfort- everything Microsoft has done so far has indicated otherwise.
MS store bug in 20h1
I found a possible bug in the MS store for Windows 10 2004. I checked for updates, apps got updated. But when checking again, it updated again. Goes around in circles. Created a new user account twice but same issue. Can someone ask the team to check it out?

Where's HomeGroup?
Windows 7 introduced HomeGroup. Now, on Windows 10 April 2018 Update and later, HomeGroup is no longer available. However, you can do one of the following: - Save your files to OneDrive and share a link to other people, or give them permission to view or edit. - Use media sharing for pictures, music, video, and recorded TV. - Share your folder with someone else who is part of your network. - Access someone else's PC in the Network folder as long as other PCs are part of your network. - Access any shared printers through the "Print" dialog box. (If you're using a printer that has a built-in Wi-Fi, other users can use it.)
Microsoft versus Chrome
I came across this analysis written by Lifewire concerning these two giants. The paragraphs below are just two that attracted my attention. 'Microsoft has decided to discontinue EdgeHTML and other core components of Microsoft Edge. Instead, the company plans to create a new version of Microsoft Edge based on Chromium. Microsoft is going to build Microsoft Edge on the foundations of Chrome, meaning that key elements like the rendering engine will be identical. What's likely to remain different are the connected services. For example, you may still sync your bookmarks with your Microsoft account instead of a Google account, and Bing will likely be the default search engine for Microsoft Edge. A common platform will make it easier for developers to create content and apps that are consistent across the major browsers'. Source: Lifewire - https://lifewire.com - February 2020 I fully anticipate that Edge' et al will have to evolve as users' demands for greater connectivity and dynamic use increases - perhaps exponentially. š¤ Post script: I did not get on with Chrome - niggly things I suppose - but irritating as a user.
