Windows 10: Leaked screenshots from Windows 10 build 10009 reveal updated Recycle

As long as I can customize the icons in my taskbar, which I only ever have 3 and the recycle bin, which is the only icon I leave on the desktop, it is what is. I'm not a fan of the over all UI in general, but now that I've used it for a while it has become tolerable, but there are still a few changes I'd like to see, mainly within the explorer, but I digress

 

Jeez! Five pages talking about a change to the Recycle bin icon!?

I don't care what the icon looks like, I only care about functionality.

 

Technically the file manager that shows icons doesn't come from Ubuntu directly. Ubuntu just choose the default file manager to use with that distro. In Ubuntu there are at least two ways to replace the default file manger. One is a pain in the neck, the other is you add another file manager of your choice and use that one instead.

 

The other thing I'm not liking are those icky ios inspired switches in the Alarms app and I think in a different screen shot, Cortana or the notification center.

True metro design is based of typography for the UI, instead of those switches it should be simple typography that when clicked or tapped will clearly show if something is on or off.

Leaks, hoaxes, or scams! Who cares - icons can be customized.

What's under the hood is what matters - you can put an entirely new shell on Windows if you want to.

Hi

I'm not big on the new icons but I understand why they are doing it, the want it to look new.
I create most of my icons myself and replace the default ones where I can.

Especially folder icons in Windows File Explorer.

I find it a lot faster finding what I'm looking for when everything isn't a yellow folder.

Chinese not Japanese. I suspected as much. *Smile

If you watch anime, or listen to J-POP, you often hear/see English phrases/words.

I used to do that in XP and when I first used W7.
These days I'm too slack to do it. *Biggrin

 

I don't really care what they do with the icons but, I don't like 'em!
Especially the folder icons, they look tacky!

 

*Ditto*Ditto*Ditto

 

For some reason I like them more than the old folder icons. It's new and fresh .. well that's the way I look at it.

Jeff.. and YMMV.. *Smile

 

To each his own.
I would rather they looked a little more similar to this, a little more sophisticated looking.

 

That would be nice for a business to use but I'm just a home user and I like the brighter colors.

Jeff Quite elegant in truth, but also like the fresh flat format !
