If you're still on 8.1, install this to. Get. Your start menu back:

In reference to Blink, of course.
And yes, while Edge is not completely new, it
is
stripped of all legacy cruft - that was kinda the point of them doing it. IE11 is still there in Windows 10 if you want to use it, and it still uses the old Trident engine too.

Indeed, but it is at the end of the day an alternative browser. I can't help but feel that the number of people who run out and upgrade to Windows 10 just because "I want to use Edge" is maybe a bit limited...

I think it was 8 they started spreading the start all over the place.
The computer I had before I got this one has 7 Professional on it, and it wasn't set up like this one.
When I did the upgrade to 8.1 I was hoping for something more like what I was used to in appearance, but didn't get it. Obviously.

THANK YOU OH SO VERY MUCH!
I wouldn't have even thought there was something like this, or to look for it. I just thought I was more or less stuck with whatever they threw at me.

There's always a way. It was the second thing I installed in 8, after a proper browser.

Well, I think the point was more a rebrand to distance themselves from the damaged IE brand. Which was explicitly stated as the point in that leaked memo I can no longer find.

There's definitely some old windows code still kicking around in there. I just manually installed my printer driver, when I clicked Have Disk it /still/ Fucking defaults to A:/

:'D
Them were the days when installing a driver it would hang for a while trying to access the floppy drive when there was no disk in it.
