I really do miss the design of Windows 7 and the apps of that era (think Office 2007 style)

I hope it comes back

Office 2007 was the last time someone had a vision and fully executed it.

Every design refresh since then has been half finished and pushed out the door with too many bits of the old left.

Yes like the control panel. They've been at it for 10 years and there's still random bits of the old one appearing.

I definitely prefer XP over 7. No automatic updates."

Automatic updates are not bad. Quite the opposite, it’s the lack of automatic patching that is dangerous.

Win10/11’s problem isn’t auto updates, it’s the severely reduced user agency in the matter (and the quality of said updates, but that’s another story).
