Your performance experience should be fine. I'm using a laptop with an i3-2310M and it's very smooth. No glitches, no crashes.

i7 4510U here, which means its a dual core basically the same as what you have.
SSD, 16GB of RAM and liquid metal on the CPU are a little abnormal for this era laptop to be fair, but it's smooth sailing.

I'm liking the new changes to 22000.51. The "Settings" app looks and works better than in 10. The UI is much better, but still needs to be unified. When Dark theme is selected all operational windows need to be properly themed. Drivers work perfectly though. There's no additional telemetry services or executables running. Still working on removing them.

One thing on that. You installed the Windows 11 build from scratch, right?

For Windows insider builds, Windows Update checks whether you have "optional" diagnostic data enabled. If you don't, it won't provide new insider builds.

Not sure if you can get around that through some hack (maybe with wumgr?), but if you don't get new build updates, it might be that.

Of course. When it comes to OS installations, I always do fresh installs. Update/upgrades have always been more hassle then it's worth. Not allowing it on the internet either.

Something small they've changed is the taskbar icons by the clock. There's no setting to show all and disable ones you don't want to see. Hope that's not a permanent change.
