They removed the volume mixer. Only one volume for all channels. Now when windows dings, or some program dings at me, it's fucking as loud as can be.

Literally the first hit.

Even if you just click around in settings, it's 3 clicks.

Still more steps, before it was right click volume icon, mixer. No typing, no need to hope search actually works, just done.

That's still how it works for me. But thats one of my grievances. They fuck around with everything and have twenty different places to change settings. There's probably some setting or flag that disables volume mixer for you.

there's one I hate: the start menu programs list is cluttered. Used to be things were organized into folders that would grow to the right when hovered on. Now it's an alphabetical list and folders need a click. Searching is the best way to find things because the start menu stinks now. The settings are also disorganized and again search is useful only because Settings is so bad. Can't even open two Settings windows.

No memeing how bad and bloated is windows 11?

I don’t like OneDrive being plastered all over the place and the amount of time they spend sucking themselves over Cortana 2.0. I get they want to train their robot with me. I’m not interested.

Also find it annoying how they haven’t found a way to dark mode all the 95-era menus and such. The flash banging is tiring. If only they supported dark mode in 1994.

Because it was made by competent White men using the proper Windows API.

I don't believe that any human being could have possibly looked at the new start menu and said "this is better". It's like they're just now getting around to reading feedback from Windows 8.0 where people were constantly bitching about the classic-style start menu from 7 being replaced by tiles, and instead of going back to that they just made something new that's worse than both previous designs.

I finally upgraded to Windows 11 just for tabbed file explorer and here are my thoughts:

>The start menu is ugly
>The taskbar is ugly and full of bloatware like the ‘discover’ section, even if you can turn it off
>you can’t uninstall Microsoft Edge for some reason
>slow erasure of right clicking to appeal to mobile-only zoomers and thirdies (more of an Office & Outlook problem, but still leaks its way in with spellcheck)
>As another anon mentioned, menu items like sound, Bluetooth, and WiFi used to be 1-2 clicks away and are now 3 clicks away for no good reason
>menus are not visually similar, some have Windows 11 skin, some have windows 10 skin, some have windows 95 skin

Honestly feels like a reskin/beta rather than a true upgrade. I don’t see how anyone could have tested Windows 11 and said “this is better than Windows 10.”

Windows 11: Holy sweet merciful Chuddha it works now. Thank you for exposing my ignorance, anon. I am forever in your debt. I have one less gripe about Windows 11.

The OS is trash
cannot even move the taskbar without additional memery

>>106491216
No anon, this is real. They made another new right click menu and it's so slow. You can Shift+right click for the old menu and go back and forth to see how it takes more than twice as long to appear.

>>106488381
There's no real reason why all programs and drivers from Windows 8 onwards shouldn't be forward compatible with Windows 11.

It doesn't do anything new or what Windows 10 does just as well, aside from all the bullshit other anons mentioned. It has no purpose, other than being a platform for peddling AI and force normies to buy new computers.

Explorer will lock up completely for a minute trying to connect to network shares that are offline.
It doesn't just affect the "This PC" page that shows the shares but just any window and will repeatedly do it.

You can't do anything about it beyond removing the shares
>>
Rounded corners are insulting

Why the fuck can't I move the task bar? I've always had it at the top in previous versions but win11 removed that feature for some retarded reason. It messed with my workflow and muscle memory so bad that I immediately gave up on this jeetware.
