Action Windows vs. Regular Windows: Which Is Better for You? (A Comparison Guide)

Okay, so, today I messed around with my computer a bit, specifically the operating system, Windows. I’ve always been curious about the differences between Windows 10 and 11, and which types of windows work best. So, I decided to dive in and see for myself.

First, I started by checking out my current setup. I’ve been running Windows 10 for a while now, and it’s been pretty solid. But I’ve heard some buzz about Windows 11, especially regarding its enhanced security and speed. I grabbed my laptop and compared it with my desktop, which I recently upgraded to Windows 11.

I opened up a bunch of programs on both machines – you know, the usual stuff like Chrome, Word, and a couple of games. I noticed that Windows 11 did feel a bit snappier, especially when switching between apps. I guess those rumors about improved performance are true. The background processing is definitely smoother.

Then, I dug into the security features. Now, I’m no cybersecurity expert, but I did some reading online. Windows 11 boasts about its end-to-end security, covering antivirus, firewall, and internet protections. I looked at the settings on both systems, and it does seem like Windows 11 has more options and settings in that department, It’s great for both consumers and IT managers. Windows 10 is also good, because the entire User Experience will be new, and you have access to Mail and Store.

After that, I decided to explore different types of windows. I’m not talking about the operating system here, but the actual physical windows in a house! I read that storm windows can be a good investment because they add an extra layer of protection and can even improve energy efficiency. They’re installed over regular windows and can reduce noise, improve insulation, boost energy efficiency. It got me thinking about whether I should get some for my place.

I also stumbled upon something called “smart windows.” Apparently, they can change their tint based on sunlight and temperature, which sounds pretty cool. But I’m not sure if they’re worth the cost compared to regular windows. There are so many types of windows like single-hung, double-hung, casement. I need to do more research on that front.

So, here’s what I figured out from my little experiment today:

• Windows 11 does seem to have a performance edge over Windows 10, at least from what I experienced. You can quickly install games, productivity apps, and much more via Microsoft Store without downloading any third-party software.
• Security-wise, Windows 11 seems to be the more advanced option, with more comprehensive built-in protections.
• Storm windows are something I’m seriously considering for my home.
• Smart windows are intriguing, but I need more information before making a decision.

All in all, it was a productive day of tech exploration. I learned a few new things and got some ideas for potential home improvements. I might even do a full switch to Windows 11 soon, but I’ll need to back up my data first – just in case! I think the LTSC isn’t for home PCs though.
