I very much miss #2, it annoys me to no end that it isn't there. If anyone knows of a shell add-on to put it back, I would be grateful for a link.
Ain't nothing on that "poll" that I'd bother mentioning I suppose. As for the "Up" thing, that's why I use a mouse with buttons on the sides (Microsoft Intellimouse Optical ftw!!!) - it's a non-issue...

So again... what?
Also, dragging windows to the left, right, or top to make them "fit" into predefined shapes. There are a lot more, but with a teeny screen, these functions are insanely awesome!

I think I misunderstood this one, how is it different than a back/forward button?
If you use a program that opens a Windows Explorer session folder at a specific point (C:\program files\publisher\developer\game, for example), there's now no back button to go to dev sub-folder, pub sub-folder, as you started out at the game folder, and no up button by just Explorer's nature. Going by the GUI, you're stuck at the game folder.
Then again, I hate GUIs... Using the keyboard's faster, and the backspace button has always, and probably will always work for this function...
In the address bar, just click the "upper" folder. If it's not there, there should be a double cheveron that does a drop-down thing, with the same effect.
I'm sorry to bother you again, but now I am more confusedThanks. We all understand that already.
I was clarifying the difference between a back button and an up button.
Back != up, and I was clarifying how/why.
(I guess my "going by the GUI you're stuck" comment was a bit misleading... my bad... but there's no simple nav arrow button for up...)
Just use the keyboard!

There is an "up" function, and there is a back button (with IE-esque drop down list)... unless if you meant the back button not doing double duty?

That green button's gone in 7... Maybe also in Vista?
(I don't use Windows Explorer, so don't know when it disappeared...)
But yes, up != back. My original post explains when the back button may not go any farther back/up on its own.
How is that different than directly clicking the location in the address bar...?
Nevermind, I was annoyed at Chrome for having no title bar (only tabs), I guess this could be this could be the same type of situation.
Windows 7 is best Windows.
To put it in a form of yet another ongoing Internet meme:
I still do not understand the "recently opened programs" setting in the start menu. I have items that I have never ever opened that appear stuck in there, and things I open every Windows session that never end up in there. It's the most useless "feature" I see, as from my experience it isn't working as intended.
start menu
task bar
notification icons
I don't use Windows Explorer.
So, in under a week Windows 7 no longer looks and acts the way it did by default upon installation.
Strictly talking about the GUI, for the most part I did not like anything that had changed. The changes to the first three listed caused me more grief that whatever positive change it was supposed to cause. After my modifications, it now takes much fewer mouse clicks to accomplish the same thing.
You can pin items to the start menu and they will appear above your recently opened programs.
Personally, I disable recently opened programs. It's pretty much the only thing I change from a default Windows install.
Is there any reason why it caused you grief? Or are you just not like change? Personally, all the changes made to Windows Vista / 7 from XP has resulted in far less button clicks for me.
If you "don't use GUIs" like you said in a previous post, I might suggest not using an OS like Windows...
