Power users mourn features lost in Windows 11 'simplification'

I guess my point is that most users spend very little time actively using Windows. When my computer is on, close to 100% of my time is spent in the browser or Visual Studio or email or some other program that requires Windows. I spend very little time in Settings, the Start menu, the device manager, etc.. I would guess File Explorer is my most used part of Windows.

I'm glad it works for you and how you use Windows.

So how do you use Windows? Isn't it essentially a foundation for the applications you want to run? Is the percentage of time you spend doing OS level things significant?
