Hi Ck, Dell #2 finished in 1 1/2 hours about the same as usual for this HDD, In using Dell #1 I find that I really like the spacing in File Explorer. It is so much better for these Senior eyes to differentiate the categories. It is not wasted space.
I'm probably older than you and I hate it.
It should not be the default ! 😜
75 & there is a simple fix in File Explorer Settings though. Those who use the Public builds might not even notice the difference. Hence the option.
Edit: I have increased sizing on my devices which really helps. Also in Settings.
