Windows 10 works incorrectly with Large memory pages

Yep. This shoots me in the face at least once a week. Also two other problems:

1. The start menu latency is now so bad you have to forcibly wait 2-3 seconds before typing your search after hitting the start button. This is on a stacked E5 Xeon workstation class machine.

2. Search is crap. I can type "visual" and visual studio doesn't come up!?!?

Classic Shell. There is literally zero usable improvement in the new Start Menu. With how buggy it is, it's literally only worse than it ever has been.

I was using that but apparently development is now dead http://www.classicshell.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=8147

I noticed recently that typing “eclipse” or any variant thereof won’t find eclipse. (On my machine, anyway) I have to do “java eclipse” or something.

Some of the problems I understand; “regedit” has to match exactly because it’s basically doing the “run” dialog box. But no idea why other stuff can’t be searched for.

Yeah, Windows 10 search is garbage. Sometimes it even wont find anything at all. Sometimes, searching for control panel items you may find not so helpful results.

"Everything" from VoidTools is a good alternative. Very fast too.
