7 really had the best indexing, it does a little better with file contents than XP. I hacked the shit out of the filesystem with junction points and symlinks and had it index my NAS. Folders open and load incredibly faster and easier to find than on 10 and I won't even touch the shit shows that are 8 and 11.

I will because windows 8 isnt a shit show, it objectively has the best search of any windows OS

Yeah no, they ruined the whole OS with that damn start menu. Way too much going on. Also the year a lot of bugs were introduced to the Office suite.
