Microsoft does not listen

Did you know that Microsoft does not listen?

I'll gather a few examples of frustration arising from Microsoft not listening here.

OS language, default language, current language, keyboard, country are ALL independent!!

Who would have believed this? Microsoft never knew since they bought Presenter from Forethought in 1987 to market it as PowerPoint. 33 years later the state of affairs is:

Bugreporting! What Bug reporting?

So there is a bug in your software and the software detects it. See e.g. how Powerpoint 2016 might crash:

You even get an apology that part of your work might have been lost due to the bug.

What options to report the bug and get it fixed do you get? Of course none. Why should someone want this bug to be fixed. There is a repair option that might or might not work and no need to fix or listen. Your work might be lost but so what - you are using Microsoft software and loosing your work due to bugs in Microsoft software is going to be part of your daily routine soon. Get used to it and plan for it. I wonder what the valuation of Microsoft corp would be if the company would have to pay for all the lost work that is created with bugs like the one shown above. Could well be below zero ...
