So dysfunctional recycle bin and Onedrive I see as benefits, just a stable operating system would be nice to have.
My work laptop has windows 11, and for some reason I keep losing my mouse pointer. I’ll boot it up and there will just be no cursor. I can reset my graphics driver (which is what googling suggests), enable and disable my mouse in the hardware manager, tweak all kinds of mouse settings - and nothing. Sometimes opening a pdf in the edge browser brings it back, but it can still disappear afterwords.
Also, pulling up the menu to print something can take several minutes. If I need to change printers on that menu, another several minutes. Sometimes, it’ll just crash the entire program I am trying to print from. It’ll also just ignore some settings occasionally - things like landscape versus portrait.
The search feature in explorer is also absolutely broken. You can type in the exact file name of something and it’ll find everything but that file. Even the “recent files” section is broken.
I don’t understand how anyone at Microsoft thinks Windows 11 is an acceptable product. Do they not use it?

Is this the one that won’t let me log in to my PC unless I’m online? It’s shit just for that.
I'm more interested in the laptop depicted in the picture. What's that mini-screen? Does it really exists?
ASUS does that I think. They also have (used to?) laptops with whole screens replacing the keyboard.

Is there a windows 11 update that doesnt break everything?
Windows update broke keys working on my keyboard and the backlight. I keep trying to pause updates until I get time to trawl the net and scout potential problems and solutions, but apparently they broke that, too. -_-
And people ask why did I bother to set up dual-booting, it's because of these shenanigans
