Microsoft passing the buck

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-start/taskbar-does-not-display-tab-previews-for-non/ce4b8405-4d4e-4e93-9719-9ecf48685f25

Check out how Arun B J, a Microsoft Support Engineer, totally attempts to pass the buck as to how W10 breaks toolbar tab previews for non-Microsoft tab using programs which worked fine in 8 and 8.1. Latest example of "DOS isn't done until Lotus won't run" mentality?...Which I first heard as "Windows isn't done until Lotus won't run" at which point Microsoft had a spreadsheet to challenge Lotus, which might be the reason that the DOS version of the quote didn't ring true to people who developed the DOS version of Lotus 1-2-3.

Biggest bug of 11082

W10 build 11082's biggest bug is a lack of copy, paste, and delete dialog boxes. Some hope this is a sign that Microsoft is about to release a heavily revamped File Manager... with tabs maybe?

Alternate use for mouse LED

Say you want all the lights out but still want to see your keyboard. You can simply shine the LED light from the mouse on it.
