I really dislike this area of suggested apps to install - for me is waste of space, I hope it could be turn off. Same with "tips" on the lockscreen etc. I just want options to customize it, and I'll be very happy. 

//My last wish is start screen from 8.1with charmbar in tablet mode, f.e on surface pro in tablet mode :)

 

Universal apps from iOS, Android and win32 in store is instant win for me.

It can be turned off, he said that in the announcement, it's called Windows Spotlight and it's optional.

Yeah you can turn off spotlight, but the whole changing picture feature is part of spotlight. So you can't have one without the other, which is a bummer. 

build 10075 colored title bar.sdasd.jpg

I seem to remember the very first Win10 build had title bars that matched the color of your taskbar (like in most Windows versions). I'm glad to see that it was just disabled or glitchy in the previous builds. I would have been really disappointed if you couldn't change the gray color.

 

Oh... Seems it's because the app forces the title bar blue.

Spartan is what everyone knows it by, not Edge. They might have to change it back to Spartan?

Tech enthusiasts like you or me know it as Spartan. Joe User is likely not even aware of its existence yet.
