    Even since 10, they keep moving shit around. I’ll Google how to disable some stupid feature and then have to search through the results to figure out which one still applies.

    Also, anyone else notice that in the MS support threads, almost every single first response is useless and doesn’t even really address the specific question being asked but a very basic version of it? And then 50/50 whether a better reply comes in after the OP says they already tried that (and said so in their OP) or that the response has nothing to do with what they actually asked.

      For the life of me I do not understand those “windows support volunteers” on the Microsoft help forums.

      Like you say they always rush to answer the wrong thing. The “most helpful” answer is usually posted by one of them and it’s just wrong. Yesterday I had to scroll through 4 pages to find the (incredibly simple) answer to a problem I was having with Word and all the volunteer responses were utterly useless and just rehashing what the OP said in their post.
