You do realize that Microsoft is a corporation that doesn't care for just privacy either right? Neither company is morally superior to the other. Is that too for you hard to understand? Or maybe this is another fanboy who thinks that Microsoft is here to save us all from the villainous Google.

As was said above the site is meant to help the users not Microsoft. If you look really really hard you'll see that this was aimed at people who prefer Google to Bing. Either that or have next to no reading comprehension. I don't think you actually read the article. Internet Explorer and Firefox still have larger market share (combined) than Chrome does, so this is a large group of people. I just understand (unlike yourself it seems) that not everyone uses - or wants to use - Chrome as their primary web browser. I use Chrome, and have done since 2008 before the "1.0" release. Considering Edge will be able to do the same as soon as Extension support gets baked into it, I was only suggesting that the downsides/requirements for this should be more clear from the outset.įor what it's worth, I was not in any way bemoaning anyones browser choice. I never suggested this was hard, it's just a very nuclear-option way of getting this functionality. It mentions nothing about Chrome until the fourth paragraph, and the first step in the guide is installing it. The article title and byline both suggest getting Cortana to search using Google. At no point did I say the article "endorsed" the installation of chrome, it simply has it as a requirement for this functionality. If you use flagship hardware, chances are you won’t notice taskbar performance problems, but the delay could be noticeable on low-end hardware, especially older devices.Perhaps you should re-read what I actually said instead of drawing assumptions. According to Rich Turner, Microsoft’s product team are currently investigating the report and they’ll share the result of the findings soon.
Google chrome not opening from taskbar windows#
This is fairly consistent across multiple traces, multiple clicks on the same entry, etc,” Google dev wrote in a Github post.īruce noted that there are many things the Windows team could work on to address the performance issue with right-click on taskbar entries.įortunately, the bug report has been acknowledged by Rich Turner, Sr. “Thus, in the particular event that I am looking at the total latency is 230 ms. Dawson also discovered that the problem is not limited to the jump list as there is also a noticeable delay when you left-click on the clock on the taskbar. Windows 10’s jump list delay happens with all programs, including Notepad, WordPad, Chrome, Edge, and Microsoft Teams. Google developer believes that the jump list should be faster and he expects the menu to appear instantly, ideally in less than 50ms.

I don’t want to wait for my computer, especially when doing simple and repetitive actions that I know it should be able to do roughly ten times faster,” Google engineer Bruce Dawson noted, who observed this behaviour on a device with 32GB of memory and 2TB SSD. “This is well beyond the ideal human interaction times and is a constant frustration. Unfortunately, Windows 10’s taskbar is still plagued with performance issues and there remains a delay of 200-250ms.
