Windows developers are now focusing on improving the core experience in Windows 11, with Microsoft reportedly redirecting resources to address the operating system’s performance and reliability issues, according to The Verge.

The move follows criticism of Windows 11 over recurring bugs and performance issues. Many users have also reacted to what they perceive as intrusive ads, bloatware, and unwanted AI initiatives.

“The feedback we’ve received from our community of engaged customers and Windows Insiders has been clear. We need to improve Windows in ways that actually matter to people,” Pavan Davuluri, head of Windows and devices, told The Verge.

“This year, you’ll see us focus on addressing the pain points we hear repeatedly from customers: improving system performance, reliability, and the overall Windows experience.”
