I agree so much on this. The biggest problem for me is dumbing down the file browser when using MS office products. I used to have a workflow of quickly organizing files directly from office. But the modern file browser is so much less efficient and the extra clicks frustrate me a lot

How far back do you want to go? Windows 3.0 file manager is now open source and readily available from Microsoft directly![1] I’ve personally found it a joy to use even on a modern OS like 10.
