One more reason to switch to Linux

Almost plausible, except their search doesn’t fucking work either. I have repeatedly had the experience of typing the exact name of a program I know I have installed only for it not to appear in the incremental results. Sometimes programs will appear if you type less than the full name but then disappear if you dare type all of it. Sometimes the only way for me to find programs I want is to use an alternative launcher like the one in PowerToys. The last time start menu search actually worked was Windows 8.1. I fucking hate it, and it has driven me to make the leap to Linux for my personal computer, I am loving it so far.

That's.... Exactly what I was talking about. Master of the content.

I am fully aware that the windows search hides things that you are actually searching for. Particularly if they are system preference apps, and it always goes to bing first regardless.

Also, I bailed as well. I use windows for work and school, otherwise I'm on linux.

Yeah, I think I was actually agreeing with you, I just had a rant that wanted to get out lol
