Windows 10: Windows development implementing miliions of useless features, and removing actual helpfull...

Hi,Why do windows development contstantly remove good features, and keep adding useless backgroup stuff that keep wasting system resources.example, we used to be able to move out taskbar around, left, top or right of screen,we used to be able to group and ungroup taskbar icons, and hide or unhide labels seperatly, but now we only have 2 options, ungroup icons with a forced unhide of labels previous version was more customizable,windows also keeps forcing us to have background features running, without the ability to enable or disable, just an example of a useless feature, is file indexing...

Windows 7 top feature request list leaked to the public

With Windows still managing to find its way to over 95 percent of the desktop computers sold each year, it's not surprising that one can find plenty of people interested in giving their feedback about what future versions of Windows should be able to do.

A few years ago, before Windows Vista had even shipped, Microsoft sent out a wish list form asking people what features they would like to see in the next version of Windows, currently code-named Windows 7. The top wished-for features in this list were recently leaked to the public and have popped up at various sites (e.g., Neowin). While anonymous sources at Microsoft tell us that they bear no relationship to the actual feature set Microsoft is currently writing for Windows 7, the list does provide interesting insight into what the Windows-using public most wants from Windows.

The features are listed in no particular order, but they break down into various categories depending on what part of Windows the feature request falls under. Many requests for improvements in Internet Explorer, such as a session restore function, are fairly obvious wishes for features that already exist in competitive products such as Firefox and Opera. Other suggestions, such as a tabbed Windows Explorer, look for features from web browsers to migrate into the general user interface.





Some of the feature requests are clearly unrealistic, such as the desire to "back up" Xbox 360 games to the PC (yeah, I don't think Microsoft will be doing that one). Others are minor user interface enhancements that would be nice additions but wouldn't really change the Windows experience, such as a progress bar when hibernating the system. However, there are a few that make good sense and would be welcome additions to the operating system, such as a built-in video and audio codec manager.

A Windows 7 insider who wishes to remain anonymous told Ars that the leaked feature list was gathered before any real development on Windows 7 was started, and readers should not expect to see requests from the list necessarily implemented in Microsoft’s next major Windows release.

 

Add-Ons for Firefox crash since update to 80

Actually, I think one of the above steps fixed my issue. I don't think I rebooted my machine after trying these steps, but I did reboot it on Sept 10th and I haven't had the issue since. Just FYI -- try the above steps and reboot Windows seems to work.
