Posted March 30, 2017 So basically, Defender got a little better, the awful, redundant Settings app got more junk it didn't need, Edge is marginally better and DPI scaling is maybe better. Everything else seems very minor, and not much to really care about. I don't care that you separated my start menu, Cortana never has been and likely never will be available in NZ, I don't use UWP, I've never once been interrupted by an update and Game Mode won't do anything for me... Great job Microsoft, a whole bunch of junk and very few meaningful additions. A proper UI redesign would be nice, Windows is seriously ugly these days. At least Bash is pretty useful, only because I actually know how to use it.

Posted March 30, 2017 13 hours ago, Doobeedoo said: Pretty good set of updates though. Unified settings would be great, merge Control Panel entirely with Settings, also File Explorer dark theme would be awesome to have. As far as Themes would be amazing if it's like a visual styles supported too, you know such detailed customization etc. Wish to see how improved Game Mode will be with time. It's a neat feature and good it's there. Windows update... updates are improved too, so that's good. Agree with you about the settings, either put it all in settings, or remove the damn app. There's no need to have things duplicated across them, especially when I invariably get dumped into Settings when I wanted ctrl panel and then can't do anything useful. For themes, I'm hoping it's more than just accent colour, desktop background and screen saver. I'd love to see ways to actually change the visual style across the OS.

Posted March 30, 2017 So I looked through this whole thread and nobody has asked the most important question. Is this going to reset all of my default applications and file associations when I do the update? I'm not too thrilled about the idea of playing the role of free tech support for everyone in my family when pdf files start opening in Edge again...

I'm pretty sure the update that corrected that was in the insider builds about a month after the anniversary patch. So this update should reset it one last time, but all future upgrades will be more selective of how they mess with the registry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the plus side the fix also simultaneously fixed the Windows Store reinstalling all the apps you've installed and later uninstalled after every upgrade, so this should also be the last time they have the Windows store download the 300 free apps that they tried for 2 minutes before uninstalling.

I didn't mention it, but more settings got moved from the Control Panel to the Settings panel. At this point, you should never/rarely need to touch the old Control Panel. Control Panel has been removed from the "power menu" (Win+X), replaced with Settings as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time Windows will reset to default a file association, now, is if your registry for that item got corrupted, or not properly registered by a software that doesn't follow Microsoft documentation. This usually affect Windows XP and older code, as how the file association system is made has been changed since Windows Vista. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
