Have to say, I’m surprised by this list. You seem to have included a number of things that have been around for years…but I guess as Win 10 removed so much functionality to be ready for its promised release date – many of these features are ‘new’ to Windows 10, even if the majority have actually been around for years. Little bit sad really that we may get all the things that were removed sometime in the next 5-10 years. Perhaps until then Windows 10 should be known as NACOSY (not a complete operating system yet)
