Windows 10 is already looking like a huge improvement over Windows 8 but that doesn’t mean hardcore Windows users are completely satisfied. Paul Thurrott has asked his readers to help him make a list of features that they want to see added to Windows 10 between now and its official launch next year and they definitely include some things Microsoft might consider adding.

The most popular requested feature according to Thurrott’s readers was the ability to “move or disable the new search and/or taskview buttons” on Windows 10, which is something that Thurrott similarly suggested during his own Windows 10 preview. Other popular requests included adding “a little animation/transition when opening the Start menu”; making it easier to use local accounts; adding tabs to the File Explorer feature; and updating icons, some of which haven’t been updated since Vista.

Thurrott’s whole list is worth reading and can be found at the source link below.
