TBF the task manager and those windows explorer dialogues were programed in like 1996 and it's probably one of the best functioning feature in Windows so changing it too much carries high risks.

This is such a Windows way of thinking. Why does every other OS constantly change and evolve but Windows is like β€œcan’t touch this code from a quarter century ago?”
