1407037 2015-08-19 05:37:00 Hi Guys

I have a small annoyance (sort of a bug) that has been in Widows for ever.

Where is a good place for me to report it to Microsoft so that they can put it on their to do list?

1407038 2015-08-19 05:45:00 The Windows Feedback tool

It will never be fixed in Windows 7 as it is in extended support, it will also never be fixed in Windows 8

possibility for Windows 8.1 depending on the severity and impact of the bug

but you have a good chance of getting it fixed in Windows 10 as Microsoft I crowd-sourcing the development and other users will be able to upvote on your feedback

Probably not, but at least I was able to mention it.

I found that Feedback Tool, but did not like it as it meant I had to sign up as an Insider.

I found another place where you can report requests.

Mine is 32,000th in the list!

It used to tick me off, through many versions during install, you select the Language :English-NZ, Country: NZ, next screen timezone and it always defaulted to Tijuana.

Its when you save an image to a folder by right clicking. The folder it wants to save it in comes up at random. Then we you go to save another image it does not always default to the last folder you saved to.

But if they gave me a free ticket to Tijuana, I would not complain.
