The Windows 11 UI brought significant design changes, and while many users appreciate its fresh look, there are some common complaints and criticisms. Here are a few points people have raised about the Windows 11 UI:

1. Center-Aligned Taskbar and Start Menu

Issue: The new center-aligned taskbar and Start Menu feel confusing for some users who are used to the left alignment from previous Windows versions.

Impact: CL Debloat can quickly switch your task bar and Start Menu to the left, avoiding the disruption for habits you have formed over years of using Windows.

2. Simplified Right-Click Menus

Issue: The right-click (context) menu in Windows 11 is more simplified. It hides many commonly used options under an "Advanced options" button, requiring extra clicks.

Impact: Anyone who uses Rename or Properties knows that an extra mouse click for "Show More" done 30 times a day is a productivity hog.

3. Square Corners for Easier Window Resizing

Issue: Windows 11 introduced rounded corners, which some users feel make it harder to grab the edges of windows for resizing. Square corners, as seen in older versions, provide clearer edges that are easier to click and drag.

Impact: Users who frequently resize windows for multitasking or arranging their screen find square corners more practical. Clear edges make it easier to quickly adjust window size without struggling to locate the exact point to click, improving workflow efficiency.

4. Advertising in the Lock Screen, Start Menu, and Desktop

Issue: Windows 11 has introduced more advertising content on the lock screen, Start Menu, and even on the desktop. This includes promotions for Microsoft products and services, which some users find intrusive and distracting.

Impact: For users who prefer a clean, uncluttered workspace, these ads interrupt the experience, taking up space that could be used for their own shortcuts or widgets. The presence of ads in these core areas feels out of place, particularly for those who view their PC as a productivity tool rather than a platform for promotions.

5. Copilot and Additional Bloatware Apps

Issue: Windows 11 includes several pre-installed apps, like Microsoft Copilot, along with other "bloatware" apps that users may not need. These apps take up system resources and space, often running in the background and slowing down performance, especially on older or lower-spec devices.

Impact: Many users prefer to choose which applications to install and find these additional apps unnecessary and hard to remove. For those who value a clean, efficient system, these pre-installed apps create clutter, reducing the sense of control over their own device.

Summary

CL Debloat works by changing the registry settings that control these specific Windows features. All changes are completely reversible. All settings will stay set even after you restart your computer.

Researching and changing these settings on your own can take many hours, and much of the information online is outdated. Some registry changes require Admin mode or a PC restart. CL Debloat makes it easy by handling all these details quickly, giving you full control over which Windows features to add or remove.

Microsoft requires you to use Windows 11 now, but you don't have to change your way of working. CL Debloat will restore the familiar Windows 10 look and feel, and you will be more productive with these changes.
