Windows -- what would you change in interaction?

Hi everybody,

not to start holywar... I'm just curios... Many of us use Windows
everyday and I'm sure you've noticed things, you would be done
differently or something you really miss there...

What would you add? What would you change?

I really miss search box in "Add or Remove Programs" control panel applet.
Sometimes you know name of application you want to uninstall but dont
remember name of manufacturer and you have to scan whole list to find
the one you are looking for.

Another thing I miss is nice launcher for applications.
