They'll never read nor act on this feedback, but here's my list:
Honestly win10 was great when it dropped. Not sure why we needed 11.
Somehow my 11 feels that way, being in EU, having it installed with the W7 license key that came with my laptop. Still, there are bugs that seem ludicrous to me, from a company like them, especially in the file explorer that cannot manage keyboard shortcuts properly when you move between tabs, or that don't highlight the proper file or folder you've selected. Same thing with how buggy Excel has become, especially with rendering when you switch between multiple files. Selections are offset from were the mouse is, that's crazy. Best solution I've found is a quick CTRL-N, CTRL-W that seems to reset it. Anyway, I've been using windows since 2.0 on MS DOS 3.30 or 5.0, Excel for about 20 years most of my life at work, and things are really not improving.
To be fair, I think they knew that. Which is why they said up front that windows 10 was the last windows you'd need. And then for some reason they kept going...
