The only thing Windows 10 UI rises to is a paragon of lagginess - and I say that about the UI I generally like, and one that runs on 10-year-old equipment just fine.

There's no good reason for a lag after hitting the "Start" button.

There's no good reason for a lag in the right-mouse-button context menu in Explorer (this was a "feature" since Windows 95, however).

I could go on for a long time, but let's just say that Win+R notepad is still the fastest way to start that program, because at least Win+R menu wasn't made pretty and slow (but still has history of some sorts).

The search box behaves in truly mysterious ways. All I want it to do is bring up a list of programs whose name contains the substring that I just typed. It's not a task that should take more than a screen refresh, much more so in 2019. And yet, I still have no clue what it actually does - if it works at all[1].

Just install Classic Shell (now Open-Shell). Resistance is futile.
