      I refuse to believe that Microsoft has published some imperfect software.

              Has anyone here experienced that?

              I’m going to ask my son. I don’t use Windows anymore.

              Only non-witches get due process.

                @mark thanks for the update.

                I've contacted Microsoft on your behalf, and they'll get right on it.

                The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                  I've never seen it, either. On my work PC, I get a tree showing my managers and direct reports, which I think comes from Teams. Maybe the browser imports data from your apps?

                    Clicking the lower left corner - this appears...

                      Enterprise edition and Home edition are different.

                          That's pretty gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course.

                            Yes, it is. Thanks for the heads up.

                            So I clicked the 3-dots at the top and found this, and turned it off:

                            Now I get this, much more hetero:
