• Patch Lady – Windows 10 annoyances

    Posted on July 6, 2018 at 11:08 CDT by • Comment in the Forums

    One of the annoyances of Windows 10/Microsoft store is the 10 block.  Yes, I’m calling it the 10 block.  Where you can only have 10 devices hooked to your Microsoft store account.

    You would think if Microsoft wanted to encourage the use of Windows 10 and Microsoft store, that they’d want to encourage us to buy more devices and hook them in.  Between physical computers (one at the office, one surface, one desktop at home, one small Acer, a Windows phone that I use for the sole and only purpose to run a remote controlled toy Mini cooper, and then various beta installs/insider builds etc… I end up with 10 all the time.  And then when I want to go into the store to download an app (typically I’m downloading a theme for someone in the office– seriously–they don’t have a Microsoft account and I’ll download it for them), I end up having to remove a prior device.

    I don’t get it why this limit is set so low?  Bottom line just an annoyance on a July summer Friday.
