You may recall that the Classic Desktop Theme was the closest Windows XP approximation we had. There were a bunch of big issues but the missing Classic Desktop Theme was one of the biggest foibles that perturbed XP junkies. In Late October of 2012, Microsoft released Windows 8 and in the following months everyone complained. Sure, it would occasionally crash, but system instability felt like the exception rather than the rule. And even though Windows 7 and Windows 10 have a litany of security enhancements over Windows XP, I still like the steel gray toolbar and the flowing verdant hills of that famous Bliss wallpaper. For the most part Windows XP was reliable.
I know it’s an antiquated OS, heck it’s over 13 years old, but I still have a thing for it. I never really got over my love for Windows XP.
