When using a computer, booting to the start screen gives me a better experience than booting to the desktop, even though I haven't used the touch screen yet. ” “ I began to think that maybe Windows UX designers have always been right, and over time, this option (boot to the desktop) will be one of the least used features in the new system. ” However, no matter what the future will be, at least for now, it is a necessary feature for users to “launch to the desktop”.
