    The Keyboard and Notification icons on the taskbar are a different size than the Sound, Battery, and Wifi icons.
    Looks really amateur. Also notice how they have no common baseline. They jump up and down, jarring the eye.

    This is why Microsoft can't build a beautiful OS -- it seems they have no one who takes pride in their work, or who cares, and if they do, they are not in the position to do anything about it.

    For all who say that tiny details don't matter - did you know Steve Jobs PHONED GOOGLE (the manager in charge of iOS software) on the weekend, just so he could CHANGE THE SHADE OF YELLOW on an icon. That's attention to detail. That is why the UX still sucks on Windows. Because nobody cares.

    I do not like the font size on the main screen when computer is first boot into...The names of the users at the left bottom and the last user name in the middle of the screen. Too big

    The white bar at the top of some windows really annoyed me for a time until I managed to change its colour.

    And then, whilst not a UI issue as it is a design choice taken by Microsoft;

    Full circle effect for User account picture! Grrr! Anyone know if it's possible to turn off the border radius-like effect?

    It's not really a Windows issue, but Firefox themes look awkward with the new buttons (they did with Windows 8's new theme, too, but it didn't look as bad).

    What happened to the preview pane in explorer? I use it all the time but in Windows 10 it's missing. Is it just me?

    Safety remove Hardware icon still looks like it does from Windows XP. Ugly and it does not match the other icons.

    That's the Windows Vista icon, but I agree. It should've been replaced with a new one.

    Thank you. I didn't spot that View tab up there so wondered where the hell you were pointing.

    If you drag something to "Start" button, it will show a "Pin to Start" popup. Drag-and-Drop pinning has been removed from release version of Windows 10, but the useless popup is still there.
