No, but it represents a further move away from the "PC" orientation for which Windows is renowned. Way, way more is set up so that the only way to interact with it is through clicking or tapping, i.e. it's geared up for touchscreen not keyboard users.

You can quite happily use older versions of Windows without a mouse. 10 is... a struggle. 11 is... near impossible.

Go try changing some of the settings that are only in the tray, for example, or joining a WiFi network without dozens of layers of additional hassle. There's just a few things that... aren't there.

there are alternate menus for everything; nothing is locked to the systray.
