- Alifatisk 3y agoEvery UWP app I have installed has been horrible in terms of ui, half-baked & unreliable. And these are on the M$ store too!
- contravariant 3y agoIs the M$ store even supposed to be used of serious software? I can't help but feel it is not intended to be taken seriously when I get flooded with ads for games and kids movies upon opening it.

- satiric 3y agoI was assuming it would be the same UI that they currently use for .zip, i.e. basically just the file explorer but with an extra tab for the extra functions
- BizarroLand 3y agoYep, and with the same limitations like not being able to extract to a onedrive folder consistently. Windows = Microsoft program OneDrive = Microsoft program Extract tool = Microsoft program Microsoft = 2.33 trillion dollar company. Having 3 programs coded by Microsoft and baked into the operating system or included by default with the OS install actually work together: impossible

- stuaxo 3y agoIn-flight they will be brotli compressed for efficiency. The whole system will use between 5x and 50x the energy of just decompressing locally.
