Windows 11 has been a nightmare for me. Every time I leave the file browser open my fans start up like I'm doing something insensive. Mssms freezes constantly, visual studio freezes constantly. Switching between virtual desktops? Not without waiting 30 seconds. And finally, idk if this is a dell thing or a win11 thing but the "low power mode" that activates if my battery is at or below 10 percent, despite me turning off all battery saving settings I can find, makes my computer functionally useless. Programs don't load, I can't close or open anything. Like the whole point of low power mode is so you have a little more time to wrap up things before you can get to a charger. There's no point to that if you set my PC so low power that it literally can't even run the bloated ass OS on it. I hate it so fucking much.
