I too, think the Windows start menu is way too responsive and not buggy enough. /s

What are you talking about, it always takes me to the right website when I search for the app I just installed!

It used to be when it was basically just a folder of shortcuts. Since the metro interface the start menu has been getting worse and slower.

I only know of Win 7 and Win 10, never touch 8, 8.1 nor 11. I still use win10 at work and the start menu is very odd. I like to use the win key to summon the menu and search, but the behavior is very inconsistant, sometimes it's fast, sometimes very slow, sometimes I can search, sometimes not, sometimes it gives me the file/app i am looking for, and sometimes it decides to go for bing results. I must admit, I actully never ever navigate the menu itself appart from turning off the laptop. It is a very slow and inefficient design element in my opinon.

Weirdly enough the windows 11 start menu has gotten better.

I personally don't find anything I like about the win11 start menu, it feels like such a huge step backwards to me
