    It’s threads like these that show just how tech illiterate millennials are.

    If windows is too much for you, then there is no hope for us.

      Microsoft Office integrated OneDrive into the save file dialogue (or rather, lack thereof). I need to click “save as” to prevent it from making me save the document in the cloud.

      Microsoft’s foolish attempts to follow Apple and Google in their “file systems don’t exist” design somehow managed to make the save file dialogue confusing. The worst part is that I don’t get this stupid OneDrive behaviour all the time. Sometimes it’ll just pop up a dialogue like it’s supposed to.

      I rarely use Windows these days, but when I do encounter modern versions of Office these changes are quite frustrating.

      I mean, there’s plenty in windows that isn’t friendly to deal with. Can you, in a basic manner that normal people could reliably do, disable edge?

      Also, millenials are mostly like, 30 now. Is that what you meant?

      Might not be tech illiteracy, as OP implies. Windows has just gotten “too smart” to the point where it makes even the most simple tasks unnecessarily cumbersome.

      I for one have migrated to a less bloated OS which doesn’t decide how I am to use my computer.
