I'm wondering where we suggest things we'd like in future Windows?

I wish when you overwrite files, that you can have a feature/option
which saves the newer version.

I'm upset I can't format a boot disk on USB.

I've often gtten in trouble because I copoed or compressed something
and hidden files didn't come along. Sometimes on the same disk.

Windows Vista and Win7 have the ability to save previous versions

Already there in Windows Vista, and up. It's a function of the NT Backup
program that was updated to provide a file versioning function.

So you are not allowed to reformat any USB-attached mass storage (fixed or
removable) device?

That's been available for a very long time. Configure Windows Explorer to
show hidden files. Then you can select them as you can the other files.
