We saw this in Windows 8, we now see it in Google. This age will be remembered for developers replacing functionality with headache-inducing additional steps which the old version could do with a single click.


Here's what to do: Click on the question mark in the lower right corner > Return to classic Google Maps.

Now you can once again simply right click and get directions to/from and have single click functionality once again.


It's important we remember not to blame the developers but whoever actually approves changes which sacrifice super-fast computing and wastes our valuable time.

On second thought, why bother with right clicking to change settings every time you need to use Maps? What other web pages do you know of which offer single click From/To directions?


EDIT: Maybe bookmark https://www.google.com/maps?t=m&output=classic
