Microsoft is committed to enhancing the performance and quality of its Windows operating system, particularly for Windows 11 users. To achieve this, the company has made significant investments in improving memory usage, using a new system compositor, and enhancing the reliability of the WinUI framework. These improvements, while unlikely to be noticeable to users, will greatly benefit low-spec PCs by enabling smoother performance and reduced overall RAM usage.
Microsoft has been internally testing these changes to ensure a more streamlined and efficient Start menu experience for users. As part of this process, the company is set to retire older Windows UI elements from Windows 95, bringing them to the modern era with the introduction of WinUI 3.
For Windows 11 Home users, they may be unaware of the benefits offered by Windows 11 Pro. To learn more about the distinctions between Windows 11 Home and Pro, refer to our comparison guide. If you're considering an upgrade, consider purchasing it at a reduced price in the PCWorld Software Store: currently priced at $59 instead of $99.
