It’s 2019, and Windows 10 has too many useless and annoying features. Don’t get me wrong: Windows 10 has gotten better and, overall, I love it compared to Windows 8. But some things just need to go.
The People Icon Without Any People
The My People feature lives on Windows 10’s taskbar by default. Click it, and you can chat with people on a variety of different services. You can even pin your favorite contacts to the taskbar and have one-click access to your favorite people!
That’s how it’s supposed to work. In reality, My People has integrated with very few services: In the default Windows installation, it only works with Mail and Skype. You might expect that People would be integrated with other Microsoft applications like Microsoft Teams, LinkedIn, Yammer, and Xbox Live Chat, but you’d be wrong. It doesn’t even work with the SMS features built into the Your Phone application. Does Facebook’s Windows 10 app integrate with it? Of course not.
Microsoft hasn’t even adopted My People for its services, so it’s unsurprising that only a handful of apps have integrated with it. The list of available apps for My People in the Store is tiny and extremely sad. Microsoft needs to get rid of this feature. Thankfully, Windows 10 users can disable the People icon until then.
The 3D Objects Folder No One Uses
I don’t know about you, but I’m sick of seeing the “3D Objects” folder under This PC in File Explorer. How many Windows 10 users actually use this folder? Is it really that important?
The 3D Objects folder was added to Windows 10 as part of Microsoft’s 3D obsession back in the Creators Update days, when Windows 10 also received features like Paint 3D, Mixed Reality (actually just virtual reality) headsets, and 3D printer support. Microsoft talked up the idea of converting Minecraft worlds to 3D models and then printing them.
Those features are cool, I guess, but they’re not important to most PC users. At least you can easily uninstall apps like Paint 3D. You have to use a registry hack to hide the 3D Objects folder.
