Over the last week, I helped 4 people get a piece of software working on Windows. Something I found mind boggling is that the windows/search button doesnt load every time. From my nvidia 3060 gpu laptop, to my tiny i5, to cheap refurbished laptops, all computers seem to have an issue displaying the search/windows button's data. I believe if you wait long enough, it shows up, but sometimes you click off and re-click. Anyway, its utterly mind boggling that the OS that has 90% of users has this issue. (My guess is that its doing some sort of online thing and it wont display results until it gets the ads/sends data)
