    Dear Microsoft, please fix our Windows 10 pet peeves

    I find this EXTREMELY annoying! I was using it all the time, and with the first creators update it was just gone. And its not mentioned anywhere that the DNLA feature has been removed or why! -.-

    Power throttling modes

    Im using "balanced" on battery, seems the best balance of batterylife and performance. Plugged in, im using "better performance", seems to be a good balance between noise and performance when for example playing games. Cheers! :)
