hear me out. how about ... there doesn't need to be a background process that runs constantly and consumes 30% of your processing power and makes the fan spin all the time because it generates so much heat.
I am stuck using an otherwise old but theoretically bearable PC at work running Windows 11 from a spinning HDD. But I'll tell you, when I dug through the registry to turn off all the background indexing nonsense, it became damn near usable.
