What feature(s) are you so impatient for? As exciting as new AI tools and stuff can be I'm holding my breath more for house cleaning, unification, and de-bloating efforts more than anything. I think it was announced that Edge will be losing Math Solver and other bloat.

i just want them to stop randomly popping up explorer windows i have minimized while doing other things.

I didn't realize that was an actual bug, I thought it was just something happening because I was palming the touchpad while typing.

Does anyone have a link to a good guide on how to de-gently caress OneDrive's bullshit? I want to stop %documents% from pointing to the OneDrive folder so I can be rid of it for good.

Right-click the My Documents library and go into properties. There’s an option in there to change the directory location.

Perfect, thanks.

Or it would be, if windows wasn't throwing an error that means loving nothing. Looks like I have to do registry edits to de-gently caress it, I'll try to deal with it later.

Jesus christ, gently caress you Microsoft. I don't want your bullshit.

Remove Onedrive first and then try changing the location.

I believe you have to 1) stop backup of the folders, which is enabled by default 2) uninstall OneDrive 3) locations should default to local now. If you don't stop backup before uninstalling it's a nightmare lol

Holy poo poo they finally got rid of the white flashbang when opening Explorer windows in dark mode with the latest update (I'm on Release Preview).

Also Explorer is still far from 'snappy', but they also seemed to have reduced, if not eliminated those instances of watching the context menu draw-in the additional options areas after it pops up. Wee.

Ableton live puts gigs and gigs of content into the Documents folder, which immediately got uploaded to OneDrive and filled up all my storage. Oh cool I can't receive or send emails because a bunch of poo poo I definitely dont need on the cloud took up all my cloud space. I bet syncing the files back to my PC and telling OneDrive to stop syncing that folder will be a breeze! Oh nevermind it took loving hours and kept crashing explorer trying to change attributes of tens of thousands of files at a time.

But you see, this is good for the consumer because back up is hard or something. Maybe you just need to give Microsoft another $20 / month in perpetuity to make your computer work and it'll be fine.

Once again, I want like... someone to make an inexpensive 3- or 4-bay NAS that you can just slot a couple of cheap consumer SATA SSDs into, it automatically RAID-5 or RAID-6s itself. It doesn't need to be huge, and it doesn't need to be much larger than the stacked dimensions of the 4 SSDs themselves.

Kubesail has come absolutely closest to this with their PiBox, but they only have a 2-bay version, and the 4-6-bay versions are nowhere to be seen. And you still need a screwdriver to access the drives. I'm thinking carrierless bays.

Like, something cheap enough that EVERYONE can have just hooked up to their network at all times.
