Microsoft is ruining their operating system because their focus is mostly on low power trashbooks and phone processors. They can't seems to understand the difference between Jokebooks and powerful desktops. The arm and power saving aera has to stop. Before it's too late.

 

Windows 11 is secretly throttling your apps - here's how to catch it

Windows 11 quietly slows background apps to save power. It's easy to find throttled processes, and sometimes, it's better to take back control of your CPU.

 

Windows 11 throttles background apps to save power, and it's not always right about which ones deserve it. Power Throttling at the system level and Efficiency Mode per process in Task Manager handle this. With Windows version 25H2, both have gotten more aggressive, even on desktops that aren't on battery.

 

Yup, everything is all about trashbooks and power savings. When will they start understand that most people want a working and powerful pc instead of a pc  that's always on standby? Is a pc meant to be off all time bro @Mr. Fox?🤔 

Microsoft quietly improved Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 Modern Standby

Microsoft has new default settings for Modern Standby and S3. There are also several improvements under the hood on Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2.

I dual boot but consider Kubuntu my primary operating system. Winduhz exists only as a necessary evil. My intent is that Windoze is only to be used as a temporary stop gap solution. It is unfortunate that so many people define an "upgrade" as moving to something newer. All too often newer is not better, but newer is a regression. This is precisely the situation with Windoze. Newer is not better. Windows 10 was a downgrade from Windows 7. Windows 11 is a downgrade from Windows 10. Each build update introduces things that nobody wants that only Micro$lop benefits from. More control for Micro$lop and less freedom for end users. End users are not customers. What they want is irrelevant to Micro$lop. The laziness and resistance to change of human beings is a well-established fact and it is something that has allowed Micro$lop to survive. It's easier for the average person to surrender and submit, and Micro$lop know that gives them freedom to do things that suck. People will continue using an inferior product that many of them despise because it requires no effort, even if it costs them money to take the lazy and lame path that uses none of their brain cells, requires no effort or learning, and allows them to avoid change. They will stick with what feels most familiar even though doing so it not ultimately in their best personal interest. Ignorance is bliss.
