The worst part is that it worked fine on Windows 7. You could hit start > type the first 3-4 letters > enter and be able to open any program or OS setting in under a second. They somehow fucked it up with 8 and still haven't fixed it over a decade later.

Base windows 8 still had a very performant search, though a bit worse than 7. 8.1 is where it got truly fucked up.
