It was only important enough to put that paint layer on the top, more visible sections of Windows. It's not like they missed a spot or two - they didn't even TRY. V oilà! We are transported back twenty years in time! Choose "This PC" and then choose your C: drive. Or let's go to File Explorer, with it's pretty new Ribbon on top and pretty side panel. From there on down it is good old times, baby! The circa-Windows 98 window opens up and is still called "Mouse Properties". But then go to the right side of the window options and choose "Additional Mouse Options". But then you go to Device Manager and it's Windows 98 all over again.
You go to Settings and it is all fresh paint and lipstick. Thanks, get on with it."Ĭan you actually outline where in the UI you are seeing them on such a regular basis it causes you such irritation? you'll need to recompile your apps as Rosetta 2 will only exists for the next 2, maybe 3, major macOS releases until it'll be gone and users can't run any of your apps anymore, like how we banned all 32-bit apps a few years ago from the App Store for iOS and iPadOS devices. Is it any-wonder macOS can modernise faster when they simply say "yeah, we're moving to this new CPU we've made called the M1.
Like seriously people: you want Windows to modernise, but also still run your 16-bit apps, 32-bit drivers and still (for the 32-bit versions, at-least) run on computers from the XP era. we have which only has a 32-bit driver, and it links to a database system, which is a 16-bit app".
I mean, the same people who moan about stuff like this are also the same people who are all "oh no, Microsoft must never stop offering the 32-bit versions of Windows. but (1) there may be legal or licencing issues around that (2) if anything went wrong with the install, they'd take the blame and (3) it's a lot of effort to go to just to please people who want to run software from 20 years ago. Sure, I guess Microsoft could "hack into" the installer, extract the script and then try to recreate the installer inside a modern UI. But surprise! If you download an app from the early 2000s then expect to get an installer that looks like it was from that era. sudo apt-get install microsoft-edge-insider). There aren't on macOS: you just drag the installer over the Apps folder, nor on most Linux distros: you use a package-manager or install from the command-line (e.g. "Why are there still app installation wizards in 2021?"
