Windows 10 Start Menu

Windows 10 is everything I thought it could be:
a bit fat waste of my morning

You had ONE job to do with the start menu:
let me drop stuff onto it

When I drag stuff onto the start menu it says it will pin it. Does it pin it? Nope. This is my start menu:

Why? Why do you have to be like this?

Here is a quote from a forum on Windows 10:

wtf man?

Their best start menu was from windows 95:

Those were the days. You could control the size and contents and have cascaded menus.

Now it is full of crap "live icons" you have to get rid of and all you are left with is nothing. Nothing.

This is a perfect example of politics messing with my user experience. They want their crap on there and god forbid I can put my own stuff there.

I ended up downloading classic shell to replace it (again)

sigh...

Oh ... and the other windows 7 machine that crashed 2 weeks ago and I had to replace the graphics card... the windows 10 upgrade is gone and won't come back. Whatever...

Microsoft: you suck balls.
