[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 72227, post: 778964"] I agree. The sad part is, and I am sure Microsoft knows this, but due to "compatibility reasons" (I'm using quotes to over emphasize this) they don't want to change. IMHO when they were working on Vista and introducing 64 bit, this was their time to make this change (if they were every going to), but chose not to. IMHO they should have only 2 sku's (not the what, 3,4,5 versions), home and business. Business can keep all the scripts what not that IT pros like, but home can remove all that crap, DLL's, registry, scripts, etc... It's funny because I think Microsoft is coming around to this when they released Windows 10S, but no one really likes it because its not "Windows" and quite frankly it's too late. As I've said IMO they should have released a "Windows 10S" way back when Vista came out as it was a new architecture and was a prime moment to make this change. Sure 3rd parties would have grumbled a little having to rewrite their programs, but if Microsoft would have just did it and stuck with it, saying to bad so sad, by now all 3rd parties would have rewritten their programs to work on the new version and by now it would be a moot point.
