"Feedback hub", not "FarceBook hub", but no doubt that's coming.
Cartina has taken over all searching, but she's not that good at it ... powered by Bong, you know.
If you are looking for a file then WIN+E and File Explorer will give you a search box on the right hand side.

It wasn't working: searching for a piece of filename in a file I had right in front of my eyes didn't yield any result. I wished to try the old search interface which is a bit more reliable, but apparently it worked so it had to be taken away in order to have a uniform system.

The first thing I do when I install 10, is to disable Cortana and pop-up ads. 10 has been humming along very nicely for me for over a year now.
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

Be fair.
At least if you have to write a business e-mail, the OSK gives you a couple of hundred emojis, so you can keep up a professional image.

I'd like an OSK with a couple of hundred tortures / punishments / deaths for my customer and a part of cow-orkers. That would be an incentive for me to buy win10 - and for the aforementioned to tread carefully.

You can reconfigure the OSK to give you a full "normal" keyboard with no emojiis:
Settings...devices...Typing
Set "Add the standard keyboard layout" to "On"
Open the OSK, and hit the "keyboard button" in the bottom right.
In the popup, select the far right option button.
Now you have ALT, TAB, and a Fn button for function keys.

Yup.
Funny how that option turned up shortly after I first bitched on CP about how useless the OSK was.

My complaint about it is amount of screen is consumes!
Half the space (and no swipe typing) is just silly.

Yes, the biggest thing that ms seems not to have recognised is that people don't need half an acre of space to accurately touch-click a button or key.
I blame the abject failure of windows mobile for this -- the poor chaps probably aren't allowed to use apple or android phones, and even they don't want to use winphones, so they've never had the opportunity to see how easy it is to type a text message using a near-microscopic smartphone OSK.

Yeah - the Google one (GBoard) is really good - swipe instead of tap, and the predictive text is pretty good. It still mixes up "Code" and "Coffee" but that's understandable, they are interrelated!

I use the Hackers Keyboard[^], simply because it's got all the keys and they behave as expected.
It doesn't do slide typing, though -- but I miss that less than I'd miss arrow keys, Ctrl, F-keys, etc.

Looks good - can you switch between it and GBoard for different apps?
I may well stick it on the WookieTab since a slide K/B is too slow due to the screen size.

There should be some media to install Windows from and the very important certificate and license agreement, Make that junk unusable and send it back to Mickeysoft, along with a letter of appreciation.
If they get enough of these, they may perhaps realize why nobody wants their stuff, not even 'free'.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
