>>15925259White Men crafted windows Vista. Then fixed most of the buggy bloat in it over 2 years or so and rebranded it as Windows 7.
All editions of Windows are made to be compatible with windows 1. You can run Windows 1 programs on Windows 10, anything you can't run can usually be made to run with software downloaded in the background from Microsoft. This forced backwards compatibility into the operating system over 30 years - in addition to all the h1b hires and other non-autists they let near the code has created giant security holes.
This is to meet "business needs". "business needs" or "business requirements" also often means giving consumer computers the ability to act as a server or be remotely controlled by default. Microsoft essentially created the security and privacy hellscape we now live in, to meet "business needs".
You would think that Microsoft Engineers would be very adept at what they do, like ninja masters or samurais or some sort of master craftsman - or they would be careful around the old software like museum curators, being careful not to create more security problems. But no, they are more like laborers at a garbage dump, piling new garbage code onto a 40 year old code base, and re-arranging the piles, and throwing sheets over them to hide them from the user, and letting"the security guys" handle security concerns as they rush to add new features. They get paid the big bucks not through their own individual skill and greatness, the succinctness and cleverness of their solutions, but their ability to meet deadlines and tolerate the h1b crowd and the alphabet people and be a part of "the team". Teamwork is a great thing, you cannot do much without teamwork - however teamwork in M$'s instance often means forcing garbage out the door onto the consumer. This is why we have new Microsoft Zero Days every couple weeks or so.
If Microsoft cared about consumers, and not just business, they'd keep the interface, rewrite the whole thing.
