The apps that Windows 10X
hides inside the drawer include
the basics—Settings,
Calculator, To Do, News,
Weather, Photos, and so on.
Apps that you might expect
(OneDrive) don’t appear, while
apps that you likely wouldn’t
expect (Groove Music, which
was disabled long ago) are
included. Edge is the default
(and apparently only) browser
of choice, though my
extensions and Favorites
synchronized with my cloud
account.
When I clicked a typical
much-used app like Weather, I experienced
a prolonged delay while the app was


downloaded and updated. We don’t know
whether a final version of Windows 10X will

The Task View within Windows 10X.


I encountered this sort of thing multiple times until the apps were
downloaded. I’m willing to chalk this up to HyperV and an early
build, though.
