All right, gentleperchildren, let's review. The year is 2024 - that's two-zero-two-four, as in the 21st Century's perfect vision - and I am sorry to say the world has become a pussy-whipped, Brady Bunch version of itself, run by a bunch of still-masked clots ridden infertile senile sissies who want the Last Ukrainian to die so they can get on with the War on China, with some middle-eastern genocide on the side
His example doesn't have to disprove your point because I already did.

There seem to be conflicting reports on whether or not pirates get the upgrade and/or if there are strings attached.
Don't need to. Even the 1:1 3.1 title bars are perfectly usable at that size on a modern screen. Current Windows bloating them up to double or triple their size serves no purpose other than to waste screen real estate or cater to touch devices. Thankfully regular users can just change a few registry keys by running regedt32. (after pinning the Run command to the Start menu first of course)

I do not believe this is the last day i think this is another attempt to make us download it.
Dude you are so wrong about it all. The desktop installations aren't catered to touch devices. Windows 8 was more catered to touch devices admittedly. Most Windows 10 users here will vouch the same thing. Real estate is the same or less. No icons are doubling in size for anything. Everything on the OS works perfectly fine with keyboard and mouse. How about learn a thing or two and go do a correct installation of Windows 10 to see for yourself rather than spewing bullshit.
And for the love of god you don't even have to pin the run command to the damn start menu. You have so many other options of accessing it. Right clicking the start menu brings up a utility menu instead of the start menu that has the Run command on it. Windows + X will bring up this same menu. In addition, You can skip all these steps and just use Windows + R so avoid any other menus. Windows + R has been the run command for quite some time. Works on 7 too. They didn't reduce functionality of the start menu. They just took some of the options and moved it to a menu accessible by right clicking the menu rather than cluttering it all on a single menu.

Yeah it's my imagination. That's why you see stuff like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/c..._say_that_the/ all over the web right? Love the example with Edge browser a bit down the page too. I noticed it when I accidentally opened a page in Edge (the Windows 10 upgrade reset all of my default applications). Everything in huge fonts with big padding space around everything which on a desktop just wastes screen real estate.

Yeah offering a free upgrade to a decent OS for a year before charging for it is such a bad thing. Especially considering any big future updates to that OS are free such as Redstone.[/QUOTE]
You people keep using this free word. Huge corporations don't do things for free. Especially an OS that's usually worth a hundred or two, to millions of people.
And if you went down even further and read what you needed to read you would've seen this:

Which is exactly what I ALREADY TOLD YOU. Completely fixed the OP's problem. But you're too busy being ignorant rather than trying to figure out what might actually be wrong. The UI scaling isn't usually increased by default, but that's not say some factors don't cause it to do so. My TV defaults to higher scaling, for example.
The task bar size is perfectly normal. The buttons there are sized according simply to take advantage of the size it currently is, which is no bigger than Windows 7, so that your less savvy people (or anyone for that matter) aren't taking any longer than needed trying to click the damn thing.

I'm pretty happy with WIn10.
Stable, quick to respond.
UI isn't the shiniest compared to 7, and the dual settings stuff is annoying but all in all, Win10 has proven to be a great OS over the last year.
@Button size discussion: I'd have to say that WinXPs Luna buttons easily take the cake when it comes to wasting space.
