Looks like you made the same mistake that many of us made: you expected windows to get better, not worse.
Anything that isn't a security update, and that has been checked to contain nothing but security updates, should be ignored.

Great software! I use it at work where I have tons of files to copy (that is our versioning system, zips on a server).

Since I got a NAS, I had to move a bunch of GB into it...
I've found that the best way to do it is using FTP (FileZilla in my case).
In case any failure happens you can see it into the summary at the end and you can restart it at will, pause, overwrite rules...

Each of those is something slightly different from the next: Do you use React? Do you use Angular? Do you want something fully featured like both of those, but you don't want to use either? Do you just want a CSS framework like Bootstrap, but don't like the look of Bootstrap?
It's true that there is a lot of noise out there, and for the developer who's just looking to get stuff done it can be unfriendly to say the least. I enjoy the wild west aspect of it, though. I got started late in my development career, so I never directly experienced "The Bubble" and all the tech-splosion that accompanied it, so I'm having fun with this stuff.

Yes, and I think you just hit on the problem. While it's great to have fun with all this stuff, let's say you're starting a web development effort (I'm not, thankfully) and you need to evaluate these so-called technologies, and as you mentioned, the underlying frameworks (React, Angular, etc), and decide the course of the pretty much the lifetime of the site, which could be years.
So, there's a difference between the "having fun" free-for-all and the "what poison pill will I swallow" in a professional setting. Oh wait, silly me. Web development isn't professional.  I should know that by now, given the Django/Rails experiences I've had.

Marc Clifton wrote: How did we get into this proliferated mess of options
By making it easy to make toolkits.
Bear in mind that the most common definition of "toolkit" (particularly the web variety) is "repository for frameworks/libraries/etc that have been made by people who know what they're doing".
They're like anthology books, compiled by people who can't write, but can only make stories written by others available.
Marc Clifton wrote: Do any of these stand out as head-and-shoulders superior to the rest?
Some anthology books do actually have well-written intros/links between the stories, rather than just mindless, poorly thought out waffle.
If the intros/links are as interesting to read as the stories, then it's a good 'un.
Marc Clifton wrote: How can you even tell?
Don't look at the promises about how you can do A and B because this framework or that library is incorporated; look at How they're incorporated, and how well the infrastructure is written.
Unfortunately, the most common "how well" is pretty abysmally.

I don't have any answers, but the W3C just upstreamed the shadow dom to dom standard earlier this month. It's been around since at least 2011, but looks like something that can build a more robust web component environment where you can mix and match UI or other components without breaking things. When I looked at it earlier this year, it was just too complex to implement, but as soon as support becomes more uniform, it could be great.

Hi Marc,
Just my 2 cents for your questions
1. We got into this mess since nothing is perfect and can be bettered. Inevitably a javascript toolkit/framework will have its shortcoming, people will jump on the opportunity to fix it (albeit by spinning up a new framework).
Look ma we have this new! thing that fixes the problems of that other framework. And oh btw it introduces a diff kinds of problems (which will be fixed by some other toolkit). Angular 1 -> Angular 2 -> Angular 3 React Aurelia you name it
2. If you want to believe a salesman then you have just the perfect toolkit for all your requirements. Now coming back to reality you have evaluate the frameworks purported claims against your own requirements. I would recommend having a grid listing at least your top level requirements  and checking off against the diff frameworks. Then pick the one which you can swallow with least difficulty. 
3. No, one can't tell if they've not used at least couple of them. I would really like to find someone who has dipped their fingers in majority of them and take their advice too. Anyone?

My wife and I have been married for 12 years. On Saturday, I finally met some of her family member (uncle, aunt, cousins, etc.) for the first time. There had been family gatherings, but I wasn't able to attend due to work commitments.
Well, on Sunday, my wife's uncle had a stroke and is now in the hospital.
We don't know what tomorrow holds; if you have someone you should contact, take the time to do it today.

I hope her uncle gets well soon.

For 12 years the guy was okay, then Tim shows up.
Sorry, just trying to lighten the mood. I do hope your wife's uncle recovers soon.

If I laugh at your first sentence, and believe me, I want to laugh, does that make me an insensitive jerk?

No, the first sentence was funny... I laughed, too.

So sorry to hear that, and I hope things have a positive outcome.
