Windows 11 optimization and customization

Overview

Information regarding Windows 11 has focused on system optimization, file management, and user interface customization.

Subsequent developments included the release of an open-source Context Menu Manager to simplify the user interface by managing right-click menu entries. Additionally, comparative testing between Windows 11 and the CachyOS Linux distribution noted that while boot times were similar, the specific Linux configuration showed faster application launch speeds for certain programs.
