I disagree for 3 things: UAC, PowerShell, and general driver abuse loopholes being closed and making security not a joke

I will also say from my personal experience there are a fair number of QOL improvements in the UI, but they kind of threw most of them away with 11, but hey, at least we get tabbed explorer... Which I still can't figure out any real use for, especially the way it's implemented...

Making security not a joke blessed us with crap like safedisc, securom, secure boot, denuvo, TPM, Pluton, Widevine, HDCP and more heinous crap. I think I can live without.

The only good thing is the UAC prompt. That one makes sense. Doesn't protect any of your important files, but keeps windows from killing itself. Sometimes.

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:
