It's a Linux skill that you can click any point of desktop and have start menu
like when you right-click on desktop and have properties menu.

The very LAST thing that Windows needs to do is resemble GNU/Linux.
There's a variety of reasons why GNU/Linux has 1% of the desktop market
share. In addition to the fact that its users seem to be mind-boggingly
delusional, there's the fact that you get to face bizarre and
irreparable problems within the operating system like screen tearing,
shut downs which don't complete and the inability to sleep or hibernate
your system. Trust me, Microsoft is much better off keeping on trucking.

When was the last time you used Linux? A decade ago? It's been
improved.

Sorry but there is no Start menu when you right-click on the desktop
here. Using Linux. Debian based. There is a menu but it takes you
nowhere. It just gives you a few functions such as Create new
folder,Change desktop background...No properties menu.Not any different
than 8.1's menu just different choices.

Just shows that you only know the past. None of those things happen
anymore and haven't for quit awhile. Also Sleep?Hibernate works just
fine. I suspend(sleep) my computer every night.

Two days ago. The problems I listed are the ones I experienced: screen
tearing playing the exact same games as I did in Windows and using the
same driver as well as the computer's inability to shut down.

My laptop won't sleep without additional settings to GRUB and like I
said in my previous post: I last used GNU/Linux on this desktop two days
ago. It uses quality hardware which works perfectly in Windows but fails
miserably in GNU/Linux.

I've forgiven GNU/Linux way too much in the past. I've had enough of the
amateur bull**** they produce.

Ubuntu 14.04 and then Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 (to see if the desktop
environment had an impact). If you're going to suggest I try something,
trust me... I will never touch GNU/Linux again.

That's fine. I am using Ubuntu 14.04 with no problems. Don't have the
foggiest notion as to why it did that to you. Haven't seen any bug
reports or complaints about issues anywhere close to what you had.
Enjoy what you are using.
