#VMWARE WORKSTATION 12 PRO MOUSE ACTS FUNNY HOW TO#
So, for tablets, it's good for desktops, not so much.Īs far as program compatibility goes, Avast 6 does not work or install unless someone has figured out how to get it working. This is great for tablets because programs won't have those extra things programs install on desktop PCs. It would rather be nice that when you right-click the program or app icon in the Start screen and the Uninstall option (or whatever other stuff programs install like a link to their website or the link to the screenshots folder if it was a game) shows up there instead. Or, if you want to add the program, you have to search for it and then pin it.
Until that happens, you have to go to the icon you don't want, right-click and unpin it. It would be nice that programs you install had an option to decide if you just want the program in the Start Menu/screen only that's necessary to run the program. Why hasn't Microsoft ever thought about a separate dedicated button in the system tray or taskbar to quickly access them?Īlso, the Start screen automatically adds nearly every shortcut made available in the Programs menu which includes the Uninstall icon. However, it's one step too many to do that. The MetroUI is doing all these extra steps than what's necessary.įor example, I'm actually getting faster in using Sleep mode, Restart, or Shutdown by hovering the cursor over the Start button, then hitting settings then Power then selecting my options. It is as griffin mentioned in his post that you are doing extra steps to get a program started. I'm trying to learn it as I go along with it as I have done with Windows 7 Beta up to RC and then retail release. I have not enabled the default Start menu as provided through registry editing or a hacking utility. Like someone mentioned above, Microsoft needs to add group folders to the Start screen. The UI I'm still in a love-hate relationship with at the moment. The difference is practically night and day.

Well, I've decided to install it on my laptop and to my surprise, a laptop with 2 GB of RAM ran better under Windows 8 than under Windows 7 Home Premium. It's a matter of choice - nothing more or less. (Some of these users may actually prefer a touch-enabled version of the Start menu - which isn't ready yet.)
Is it for everyone? No - it's not even for all tablet and slate computer users. Immersive is not as different a UI from that of a tablet/slate/smartphone - however, except for the Start menu being gone, it's really not that different from Windows as it has been, either.

(That is why I banished the Android VM I used to run in Virtual Box on Windows 7 - transition fatigue having to deal with the same issue daily on a smartphone would have been nearly as bad.) The more devices, the greater the UI change issues. One of the thorniest problems when you have multiple devices is the UI dissimilarities between them.

However, the assumption that it is solely intended for tablets and slates ignores one reason why the UIs are similar - transition between a PC (even, if not especially a traditional desktop or portable PC) and a tablet, slate, or even a smartphone (and not necessarily Windows-based, either). Yes it looks like a tablet/slate/smartphone UI, and that is indeed by design. Let's face facts - how honest has any attempt to create a true alternative the Start menu since Windows 95 been? (From what I've seen, not very - even with Windows Media Center, it felt half-finished.)ĭespite that Immersive is not fully populated with even applets, let alone applications, it's certainly far more usable - even with a traditional keyboard and mouse. I think a large part of *that* is the lack of fit/finish in all the alternatives to the Start menu (all of them).
