Thinking of going to dark side

"Microsoft made so many poor user interface decisions on Windows 10 it makes my head spin. The one that immediately jumps to mind is the screen that comes up when you do a “Save As” — instead of a traditional dialog box, you get a sheet that takes up the ENTIRE SCREEN while offering just a few options for where you can save the file. You have to click a second link on that sheet to get to the traditional dialog box."

I can't seem to duplicate this problem but it sounds like a minor annoyance rather then a major issue. There might well be a workaround for it, you'd have to Google it.

This only occurs in more recent versions of certain applications, and isn't forced behavior by the operating system itself. Office 2013 introduced the "full screen" Save As that lets you choose the file's current folder and a list of recently used folders as target locations. If you don't want to save the file in any of those, you need to press the Browse button to be able to navigate to the location you want.

I am still running Office 2010 on one of my Windows 10 PCs, and Save As still behaves the way it used to.
