I notice a subtle delay whenever launching most Microsoft made applications. I wonder what possibly goes on behind the scenes to make the “new” calculator and photo viewer take a second to load on each launch. The “old” versions always launched immediately.
I can’t help but think that telemetry is the reason. Or perhaps it is a combination of telemetry and bloat.
- soulbadguy 2y ago+1 for telemetry Do you have an intel post 12th gen with big/little cores ? The scheduler still have some issues in some weird corner cases.
- sphars 2y agoYep I feel the same lag when I try and open PowerToys on Windows 10. For being an official MS product, it's super slow to load and seems "heavy", even with telemetry and most options turned off. Maybe it's just me.
- grumpyprole 2y agoThe PowerToys UI is a dot net application I believe.
- znpy 2y agoI'm no windows expert but I recall windows had introduced some signature checking and other security measures in Windows. Chances are that more than telemetry, some of that kind of checks are being made on the binary and the libraries it loads on startup. I'm a 100% GNU/Linux guy but it would be dishonest not to acknowledge that Windows security has improved a lot if compared to where it was once upon a time. It's a big sad thing that Microsoft is pushing so many dystopic stuff, Windows could have become a great OS.
