Windows 8 developer blog, yesterday posted an insight based on their study of how Windows users use Windows Explorer. Windows 8 will have Ribbon UI on Windows Explorer. Ribbon UI always been a constant debate, some people love it, some are hated it.
We knew that using a ribbon for Explorer would likely be met with skepticism by a set of power-users (like me), but there are clear benefits in ways that the ribbon:
- Exposes hidden features that they already use but which require third party add-ons to use in the Explorer UI today.
- Provides keyboard shortcuts for every command in the ribbon, something many people have been asking for.
- Provides UI customization with the quick access toolbar, taking us back to a customization level that is basically equivalent to Windows XP.
