I love my SP3, however windows 10 is ruining it for me.
There are a few features that I miss from 8.1, if anyone knows of a way to incorporate these into 10 I'd appreciate the help.
1. I can no longer check the battery life or the time/date when I swipe from the right side of the screen to the left.
2. I can't split the screen between several apps/programs.
3. Swiping from the left side of the screen to the right no longer quickly switches between apps. It takes longer now.
4. When I open Firefox, it sometimes opens in full screen mode. If I don't have my keyboard attached I can't close the window or bring up the touchscreen keyboard to browse the web.
I know that some of these seem really petty but they were features that I found very appealing about the SP3 and now I can't use them. They were quick and easy but now it just seems that 10 wasn't really made with touchscreen in mind. I don't want to use tablet mode either.
If anyone has any help for this or knows of a post that already discusses these issues please let me know.
