This is genuinely Microsoft’s idea of a “streamlined”, “optimized” UI for Windows Explorer. They were so proud of it they wrote a blog post about it.
The post is a sort of masterpiece of crazy rationalization, but I think my favourite part may be this screenshot:
Here, they proudly overlay the UI with data from their research into how often various commands are used. They use this to show that “the commands that make up 84% of what users do in Explorer are now in one tab”. But the more important thing is that the remaining 50% of the bar is taken up by buttons that nobody will ever use, ever, even according to Microsoft’s own research. And yet somehow they remain smack bang in the middle of the interface. The insanity is further enriched by this graph:
Again, this is Microsoft’s own research, cited in the same post: nobody — almost literally 0% of users — uses the menu bar, and only 10% of users use the command bar. Nearly everybody is using the context menu or hotkeys. So the solution, obviously, is to make both the menu bar and the command bar bigger and more prominent. Right?
Microsoft UI has officially entered the realm of self-parody.

Mira que no llega al nivel de burralidad, pero casi que me he partido la espalda. Que dolor madre mia. Me siento viejuno. Y ando gracioso…. o ridiculo.
Somnolencia.
Mi ex-landlord me esta tocando los cojones de una forma monumental.
Hablando de otra cosa, hoy he llorado a moco tendido. Lo necesitaba, aunque la verdad es que no me siento mejor. En absoluto.
Necesito mover los muebles. Otra vez…
Hello?
Alguien me sigue leyendo?
Darwin you are my best friend.
Si no fuese por Darwin, creo que me habría cortado las venas hace tiempo. Eres un hijoputa, pero te quiero tela.
