Now that Vista has RTMed, what functionality would you like to see either in
a service / feature pack, extra, or future version of Windows? Please post
here with what you would like to see, why you think that people would use it
and I will try to pass the suggestions along to MS.

I guess this is why Microsoft started the Windows Early Feedback program.

I would like there to be a meaningful mechanism for reporting bugs in
the OS. One where you could view the status of the bugs you have reported.

I would like to be able to move the taskbar "tabs" so I can keep them in
order even after opening and closing programs/browsers

I would like to see the elimination of SPP and other programs that
assume that the paying customer is a thief until they prove otherwise.
Eliminating all the DRM crap would be a big plus as well. I would like
to see MS go after the pirates without involving paying customers.

Of course, I am in dreamland because MS will only get worse in this
regard, not better.

The ability to set up a list of trusted programs that UAC will allow to run.
The ability to change the fonts and colours when using the Vista theme
(especially the colour used for selected item when the control is not
focused).
The ability to remove the ridiculous DRM stuff (even if it means swearing
on you mother's life you will never down-load music/pictures)

I would like to see a better backup system with imaging to multiple
removable media supported in all the versions, I would also like to see the
backup program be able to read backups from all previous versions of
Windows.

I would like to see an easier to use interface to the firewall
configuration.

Tom,
Thank you for your courtesy asking such an important question within this
Forum.

Currently, Vista is so user friendly, safe and secure, not much remains for
improving.

However, enhancing and condensing the Help Section for BitLocker Setup would
benefit many users.

Including additional Off-line “Help� information for using a USB Flash; as
information as additional files and/or folders can be added to the same USB
Flash that contains the encrypted Key Code.

Perhaps better explain that it is of utmost importance for having the
computer connected to broadband / dial-up before initially Installing Vista
Setup would prevent many user induced conflicts.

Perhaps encouraging users for using Vista’s third party application
Compatibility Check would also prevent user induced conflicts.

Wishfully, the above two items would reduce users from telephoning Microsoft.
