Microsoft promises a fix for Windows 10 zip file woes. In November

how is MS warning users?

Through some document buried on their website that you only see if you're specifically looking for a solution to that issue? Or are they proactive and giving users a message every time they open a zip file? Somehow I think it's the former, in which case, what 99.985% of people will never see it until it's perhaps too late or something?

Not that this affects me, mostly Linux and my Windows stuff is 7 only. I find it quite depressing how all of these complaints about windows 10 quality are falling on deaf ears. Not unique to Windows either of course. At least with Linux it was possible for(example) a group of folks to fork Gnome 2 to make MATE(which I use), and have been maintaining it ever since.

For me anyway very little(if anything) has come out of Windows or even Linux in the past decade that has gotten me excited.
