If Microsoft is going to constantly toy with the UI, then I am fearful. Exactly why this change did not occur on a third machine I do not know. On two of the machines, the "File explorer/settings/power/all apps" buttons are now gone, replaced by small icons with "all apps" pre-clicked and "all apps" showing in the start menu. What annoyed me was a not-so-subtle change of the Start menu. It finally stopped after a while, but now she is afraid to turn off the machine. That is probably why my recent Windows 10 update worked fine on one computer, but did not "take" properly on my wife's machine, which went into endlessly rebooting. To make things even more complex, this hodge-podge was running on an ecosystem of computers that were also all different. Microsoft always held this as an ideal method for updates so it would not have to deal with the outrageous complexity of a world of half-patched versions of its OS in the wild. The company was not shy about changing everything. You would often end up with a whole new version and a completely different graphical user interface.
You would boot the AOL system and it would update the complete program whether you wanted to or not. I remember Microsoft, then promoting the MSN online service designed to compete with AOL, was in awe of the AOL update system. This auto-update approach harkens back to the America Online era of the 1980s and 1990s when the service dominated the pre-Internet era. The difference: these Windows 10 updates are not optional. This is unlike the previous era of the neverending patch Tuesday. These things are bound to happen when a company takes a cavalier attitude and constantly slipstreams updates. The recent Microsoft Windows 10 Anniversary Update ruffled more than a few feathers as many users are experiencing a reboot cycle.
