Microsoft said it removed the Start button from Windows 8 because of low usage, but the 3D Objects folder sticks around? Microsoft Edge’s Horrible News Feed Thanks to telemetry, Microsoft has to know how many people use this feature-and it can’t be many.
You have to use a registry hack to hide the 3D Objects folder. At least you can easily uninstall apps like Paint 3D. Those features are cool, I guess, but they’re not important to most PC users.
Microsoft talked up the idea of converting Minecraft worlds to 3D models and then printing them. 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. How many Windows 10 users actually use this folder? Is it really that important? I don’t know about you, but I’m sick of seeing the “3D Objects” folder under This PC in File Explorer. Thankfully, Windows 10 users can disable the People icon until then. Microsoft needs to get rid of this feature. The list of available apps for My People in the Store is tiny and extremely sad. The latest development reinforces the coming change, with Microsoft taking the dramatic step of removing the browser automatically.Microsoft hasn’t even adopted My People for its services, so it’s unsurprising that only a handful of apps have integrated with it. Microsoft confirmed in August 2020 that Edge Legacy browser would no longer be supported after March 9, 2021. The removal news isn't entirely a surprise. This should go without saying, but if you use a third-party browser like Chrome or Firefox, this change will not affect your daily routine in the slightest. You could theoretically keep using Edge Legacy if you just don't install the April 13 software update, but the Chromium version of Edge is the only one that will keep getting new features and, most importantly, security updates going forward.įor what it's worth, Microsoft promises the new Edge is fast and reliable. Those who have Edge Legacy on their task bars or desktops will see it replaced by the new version of Edge.
If you don't manually make the switch before April 13, your PC will do that for you. Anyone still using Edge Legacy on Windows 10 is strongly advised to switch over to the new version of Edge based on Google's open-source Chromium software, which launched a year ago. Microsoft announced on its tech blog Friday that Edge Legacy (the older version of the browser that comes pre-installed on Windows 10 PCs) will be automatically removed from those computers with a software update on April 13. Six years later, Microsoft is rather forcefully replacing that version of Edge with a newer model. Microsoft Edge replaced Internet Explorer as the default Windows web browser back in 2015.
