        <pre>It is past time to remove the Quickstart on Windows builds as is being done on
the Linux builds.

Though disabled with a default installation on Windows builds, when it is
activated (intentionally or inadvertently) it causes grief with no strong
argument  that it is a required UI component. In fact Quickstart on Windows
probably should have been eliminated at Windows 7 with MS introduction of Jump
List start menu and taskbar pinning. In any case it has outlived its function
and should just be eliminated.
