    No - I meant user unfriendly
    Surely you mean users being unfriendly to it because they won't work out how to use it. It's like a light switch every one can turn it on , but some don't realise it also functions as an off switch:D

    It isn't, which is why so many users don't find it so.

    To be honest, I doubt many people really care what "many users" think about a GUI. It's only their own opinion that matters.

    Personally, I can't stand the Windows 10 GUI. It's bloated, inelegant, and lacks sensible configuration options.

    What's it like being stuck in a rut - with the same comments time after time after time ?
    Ironic comment ;)

    I love W10 start menu, 18 Icons and a hidden list of all the stuff I use less often, get out of that rut and get with the W10 Menu:D

    If my parents can use it, it should be a doddle for everyone else!

    Your parents probably accept what they're given without thinking about it. And they probably only use one or two programs, barely having to interact with the OS UI at all.

    I could have trained my parents to use Windows 10, but I wouldn't trust their opinions on UI design principles.
