held back how? at least it had a working search bar.
Seriously, the only improvement I can think of since XP is the gpu resource monitor in the Task Manager. I think maybe the search bar worked better in Windows 7 before getting broken in 10?

Consider that even XP wasn't the same from first release until SP3. It was really two or three OS's, just with fewer user facing changes than Vista and later major releases.
