> The change from say one version of Windows to the next is tiny

Huh?! That's bullshit. I had recently tried to fix something on family's PC that upgraded itself to Win11 and had absolutely no clue how to navigate all the new settings panels even though I use 10 near daily.




You use the search box, just like you find settings in macOS / iOS / etc. No sane person is expected to memorize configuration GUIs these days.


Yes, but this is in counterpoint to the claim (paraphrasing) that "the operating doesn't change much only every 5 years".

If you go a couple months often that's enough for some things to be drastically different in Windows land. In a year its a whole new OS.
