    Yes the Address Bar looks so damn awkward with the ribbon... unprofessional to be honest, just baaaaaaaaaaaad.

    Not bad Jaycee, but Metro UI into all OS(Desktop, taskbar asf...) seems to go back to old XP times when you can choose only solid colors, it is a interface for Old people :biggrin:
    Even Apple and Linux uses transparency, and leaving usabilty(zero productive at all) Metro colors interface are ugly and kills your eyes, maybe are well visible for small displays(phones and tablets) but how about normal 19" and bigger?
    Gray or white seems a 3.11 mod with Segoe UI fonts....

    Just point of view, for me is only a few steps back OS trying to merge and force people to use touch interface with mouse and keyboard(and really two big different things, way of working and usability)

    And the biggest mistake is to COVER COMPLETELY TASKBAR with start screen and metro crap apps with just few touch commands!

    A question that I hope someone can help here. One my system has 3 gigs ram installed but it is telling me that only 2 gigs usable. Two I can not refresh my index it crashes part way through. Three as my system starts I have an explore error that comes up. I cant get it to correct it. what is the explorer rest if I am not mistaken there was a fix for that with a run CMD that you added scan too. Any help would be helpful.
