You can say goodbye to these legacy File Explorer options on Windows 11
WIndows 11 UI is only bearable with StartAllBack. https://www.startallback.com/
Neagtive. Costs 5 dollars for 1 license, more for more licenses.
My Windows10 start menu broke when they added news & interests to the taskbar - typing to find an app stopped working and I could never fix it.
Finally I installed open-shell menu which replaces my start menu and restores it back to a more classic start menu with the ability to find apps by typing.
I’m honestly getting tired of Windows and all of my productivity apps are available for linux these days so I don’t know why I’m still running it aside from convenience. Once it’s no longer convenient, off I go to another platform. If only Spez from Reddit would get that concept.
Photoshop was the last program that kept me on Windows. Photopea.com does 95% of what my old Photoshop 5.5 does for me.
I’m 99% ready to move over to a Linux distro for day to day home use, and 90% done for work.
All my users are already dualboot ready, they just dont know it yet.
I suggest to make a list of program on Windows that are critical for you, and then make a list of programs on Linux (that are maintained) and install everything on a 2nd SSD. The cost is negligible and you can tinker as much as you want without breaking your Windows install in any way.
Lol yeah I’ve been avoiding paid software for a while - and I agree, Photopea is awesome, I’ve been switching over to that as well. I’ve purposely stuck with open source alternatives for years, including for my CAD and 3D modelling needs. And I’ve toyed with the live-DVD of LinuxMint a few months back and it’s a slick looking OS. Once windows pisses me off enough, I’ll go dual-boot and default to linux mint
