Microsoft Promises to Crack One of the Biggest Problems with Windows 11: Slow Performance

GLOBAL, JUL 21 – The update improves kernel and driver layers with stricter certification and automated telemetry, cutting CPU use by 25% and reducing unscheduled reboots by 40%, Microsoft said.

  • On Friday, Microsoft debuted a new Windows 11 test build with automatic performance log collection, aiming to address sluggishness reports.
  • In 2023, Microsoft reduced startup app impact, and the 24H2 update last year greatly improved performance on older hardware.
  • Diagnostic data such as kernel logs are automatically collected by Windows 11’s logging framework, and logs are categorized in Feedback Hub’s Desktop > System Sluggishness category.
  • These updates yield fewer interruptions, faster recovery from critical errors, and about 5% more battery life on laptops.
  • Looking ahead, the 25H2 update will incorporate more performance enhancements, demonstrating Microsoft's commitment to user-driven development and ongoing stability improvements.
