The Media Creation Tool has been around and regularly updated for almost 8 years, and it *still* requires you to log in to a full-on Administrator account, just to download and save an image to a USB flash drive.

No, not "Run As Administrator." That's not enough. "Run As Administrator" in a Standard User account still quits with the message, "To use this tool, you must be signed in to Windows using an administrator account."

Actual hardware support in Windows is a joke, and it's only often-crap OEM drivers working most of the time that keeps you from realizing this.

To clarify: Windows 10 won't boot. It BSOD's with "BAD SYSTEM CONFIG INFO". This is after Automatic Repair fails & offers Advanced options, that it lets me choose "Reset this PC."

Okay, Microsoft, what exactly is the point of offering a "Cloud download" option to the "Reset this PC" feature in the Advanced Startup Options menu, the last recovery option remaining for my PC repair customer, WITHOUT EVEN PRETENDING TO OFFER WIFI AS A NETWORK CONNECTION CHOICE?

Do you have any idea how rare ethernet ports are on laptops & tablets? Not even your own branded laptops & tablets have one to share between them all!

This crap is why I haven't used Windows at home since '02.

I have the best ISP customers. Today I did what the telco monopoly made my customer wait 2 weeks to fail doing, and they tipped me $100 USD bill.
