Windows 11: A Masterclass in Disappointment

Ah, mon ami, preparez-vous for Microsoft’s latest chef-d’œuvre of frustration—Windows 11. A magnifique fusion of half-baked ideas, forced UI changes, and merde-tier updates.

In this exquisitely painful series, we’ll explore (actually 5 days, 5 articles non stop):

Part 1: Startup Apps — RAM Slathering Before Coffee
Microsoft’s chef-d’œuvre of bloat. We’ll dissect:

  • RunOnce, GroupPolicy\Machine\Scripts\Startup—because why boot fast?

  • Sysinternals Boot Trace—watching your PC wheeze into existence

  • Chrome Updater—eternal, like herpes, even after uninstall

Part 2: Snap Layouts — DWM’s Pretty Little Nightmare
A magnifique disaster where:

  • ShellExperienceHost crashes if you breathe on it wrong

  • GPU vs. DPI scaling—a battle where everyone loses

  • ZoneWindowManager—leaking GDI handles like a sieve

Part 3: Focus Assist — Because Notifications Are the Enemy
Microsoft’s brilliant plan to:

  • Hide alerts (including the ones you need)

  • Log nothing (because transparency is overrated)

  • Slow your brainwaves (proven by science™)

Part 4: Win+V Clipboard — A Memory Leak with Benefits
Where your ClipDataObject dreams turn into:

  • RTF payload injections (for extra paranoia)

  • Cloudcache.dat—writing secrets forever

  • Harvesting private trash from your clipboard history

Part 5: Right-Click Hell — A COMedy of Errors
Right-clicking in Windows 11 is now a gambling addiction:

  • 800ms delays (thanks, random shell extension)

  • One bad DLL = no right-click on network drives

  • How to crash Explorer.exe (for fun and profit)

Stay tuned—if your sanity survives.
#Windows11 #WhyMicrosoftWhy #TechMasochism

C’est incroyable! A disaster so artistically executed, it could only come from Redmond. Stay tuned—if your PC even meets the arbitrary TPM demands.

#Windows11 #Pourquoi 

So Windows 11 is not bad one OS its just Windwows 11… lets see and lets explore it all from zero to the end

rgds,

Alex
