That the start menu has a search bar. You would think that everyone would know this after almost 2 decades, but too many people still navigate through their computers like it's 1998.

Too bad windows search is the dumpster fire to end all dumpster fires. And sends all your "local searches" to the web because fuck privacy.

It’s getting more and more difficult to turn off the ads and internet noise, so you can actually get useful results

To be fair, the search bar doesn't actually appear until you start typing with the start menu up (or press windows key+S) and it's been that way for enough time that there are adults who have never seen it.

The difference is that people that are in other operating systems already know that you can do that. You don't have to tell them.
