Hi, I was excited to update my PC, but after reading some comments from a WPC news , I start thinking to pass this update.
So what you think?
So what you think?
I would suggest updating to 8.1 more secure, increase performance, more friendly for mouse input etc.
But I found that people hate the update specially for mouse and keyboard users
Seems a bit odd, since the update addresses features mainly for mouse/keyboard users. Also, future updates for 8.1 users will require that you have this update installed.
I strongly recommend.
The system is way snapier (faster) than before. Modern apps (metro design) can be pinned to taskbar, and by the default, all open modern apps are showed there (I turn it off). Clicking on any open app or changing apps is so fast I couldn't believe at first.
Mouse and keyboard PC's will boot straight to the desktop. GREAT improvement
As a mouse and keyboard user I hate this stupid update.
Why does anyone still use the taskbar?
Pretty much the same reasons that they used it before.
And exactly what is it that you hate? As a fellow mouse and keyboard user, at least on my desktop, I see nothing but value added with this update.
I haven't used the taskbar in years. Putting it on the start screen is just dumb.
Mouse user also, but this update is bad attempt to appease people who can't accept change. Can't learn anything new. How long before they bring back the useless start menu?
I disagree completely. It's an attempt to give more options that suit more people's tastes. I'd hardly say the start menu was useless. There's a reason it was used for so long.
We use to ride around on horses, want to bring that back too?
I don't get it. If you don't want to use the X to close the modern apps, you can still click at the top and drag down just like before. The charms bar still there and you can still shutdown from anywhere again, just like before.As a mouse and keyboard user I hate this stupid update.
quite simple really, if you dont upgrade, you wont be getting future updates from MSFT. and this does nothing to change the way you already interact with your PC. if you are comfortable doing what you used to do, this doesnt change anything for you... i dont get why people have issues with free updates that improves the user experience across all their consumer base and not just the vocal few.
TLDR; get the update, it wont degrade your experience
