When Microsoft finally pulls the plug on Windows 10 its successor will be four years old, and for three of those, it was never the OS of choice amongst Steam users (www.pcgamer.com)

What I don't understand about Windows 11 is why they can't seem to fix the weird delay that now exists across the entire UI.

Right click, weird delay, menu shows up.

Press the Start button, weird delay, menu shows up.

Open Explorer, weird delay, program shows up.

Enter text in the search field, weird delay, results show up.

Windows 10 didn't have that delay.

It has to run your actions by the AI to be sure they are properly recorded and sent to Microsoft.

Isn't it because they are using a react app for the win 11 UI?

The coolest part is that if your internet goes down and windows can't tell, your start menu will either never open or never have contents. It becomes completely useless. Fun!

I read a long time ago that delays had to be added to desktop UIs because users didn't think the computer was "working" if it responded in a single video frame. Maybe the M$ LLM read that too and took it to heart.
