So every time I click the start menu and there's a noticeable lag before the menu comes up isn't just me overreacting?
Or when it crashes altogether. Now it makes sense
No, it is probably your cheap 10 year old computer that is causing that. No issue on any of my client's machines.
The start menu should not lag even on a 10 year old computer, that's just absurd.
Even a 20 year old computer. Honestly.
The start menu should barely make a dent.
I put Ubuntu with KDE Plasma on some 14 year old computers (with cheap SATA SSD upgrades) and their equivalent of a start menu opens with no lag. Surely the multi trillion dollar company should be able to compete with free competitors?
Found the consoomer
lol, I have 3 computers and each one is less than 2 years old.
Don't defend the megacorp with a history of shitty software. It's just a bad look, dude.
