Windows Start Menu not starting? You're not alone

I'm not one of the anti-Microsoft brigade. My livelihood depends on Azure, and Windows is my daily driver...

BUT... Windows 11 is a bag of spanners. It seems to not really work properly. Tablet mode doesn't work anymore, so I can't really use a pen. Various bits seem to be slow, such as the scrolling in the file explorer - it may be an attempt at better animation timings - it doesn't make sense really. My SD card reader doesn't seem to work. There are a lot of things that are just worse than they have ever been.

Windows 11 seems to be a significant step backwards for no apparent benefit. I switch between Windows 10 (dev desktop) and Windows 11 (home laptop), and really cannot get on with Windows 11. I am genuinely stumped at how they could have produced something so regressive and, months after release, is still a bit shit.

Couldn't agree more. Not being able to show separate taskbar buttons is a productivity killer for me. And that's just part of it.

Do they actually talk to their (business) customers?

Of course. In terms of license increases then sure.
