Off-topic: On having been forced to downgrade to Windows 7 May 20, 2012

I'm still fuming about being gavaged with Windows 7... eight months later and I still can't find my way around it as quickly as I could with XP...


After about three weeks of teething on Windows 7, it feels like I'm using Windows XP again, after having tweaked the hell out of the thing. I disabled just about every annoying thing that there is about Windows 7.

There are only a couple of things that still irk me, e.g. folders autosorting, or taskbar refusing to stay behind open windows. For other things, I just had to get into different habits. For example, I now make copies of files/folders using Ctrl+leftclick+drag+drop instead of the rightclick+drag+drop method that I used under Windows XP. And I now copy files to docked folders using rightclick+drag instead of leftclick+drag as I did under Windows XP. And I periodically edit my file associations so that the file type description is the same as the file extension (so that I can sort by file extension by sorting by file type, since Windows 7 can no longer sort by file extension natively). For the taskbar problem I have learnt to click in three places in order to move the taskbar to the back. To solve the autosort problem I now have "date accessed" columns in all my folders. And I installed a bunch of stuff that revert the look and feel back to Windows XP.

Stuff that helped me:
