    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?

                        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:
