One major change that comes up in windows 11 is the change in the user interface. It comes with a fresh, clean, and more sophisticated look. It comes with redesigned icons, transparent background, a modern design, and rounded corners as obtained in both Android and iOS. This gives you as a user a complete sense of calmness, ease, and comfort while using it.

One other feature that cannot be overlooked is the start button which is located at the centre now. It’s still on the left side of the other icons but more to the centre. This allows you to have more control of your system as the taskbar is now easier to locate. However, if you're not comfortable with this change you can set it to the left corner like it is in windows 10. What did we say about flexibility again? The Start icon uses cloud and Microsoft 365 to show you recent files. You’ll agree that this makes using your PC a whole lot easier doesn’t it?
