Microsoft finally removes ancient Windows 95-era icons from Windows 10

It is not a secret that Windows 10 has UI consistency issues since the very first version. Microsoft tried to fix design problems many times, but things are still far from perfect and only worsen with every attempt. In fact, you do not need to dive deep into the jungles of the operating system to dig out design pieces that date back to Windows 95. Try to change an icon on the Desktop, and you will quickly discover some seriously old-school images. The good news is that Microsoft plans to fix this problem. At least, partially. This year, Windows 10 is to get a major redesign, codenamed "Sun Valley." A refreshed set of icons is part of that effort.
