Like most products (hardware or software) these days, released quickly onto the market without thorough testing. Right first time and fit for purpose are phrases that have long disappeared.

The problem is Microsoft will still see a handful of complaints verus the number of people using Windows 11 as a success.

We also still need have to have a system which can be supported, just going through the process now of replacing all that needs to be replaced. Unfortunately, our computers have gone as far as they can, mind you after 11 years we haven't done bad.

Well I have found something called Proccess Lasso that so far has made it a little more manageable and disable the option (especially in Chrome) so we shall see. It has slowed me down considerably.
