Where has Windows 11 gone wrong? Windows 10 users are stalling or defecting – so Microsoft needs to fix this one glaring issue

Windows 11 has hit some very choppy waters of late. There’s never been much in the way of plain sailing for Microsoft‘s newest operating system, right from its inception, mind you, for various reasons. Whether that’s complaints of ‘it’s just not that different from Windows 10‘ except that maybe ‘it has more bugs’, or ‘this feature that I love is missing’, or ‘this part of the interface is slower than Windows 10’. Or indeed ‘stop shoving ads in my face, Microsoft’ (although that happens on Windows 10, too, but not quite as much).

However, Microsoft has, of late, likely lost all its mirth (one top executive in particular certainly seems to have done so), because there has been something of an explosion of unpopularity around Windows 11. This rather intense burst of hate – in some quarters, because yes, this isn’t an all-pervading sentiment – is largely wrapped up in one issue: AI.
